It might make sense to also have a textual description for people who want to click this instead of running a PowerShell script.
Doesn't need to be guide "click here, then click there" - just "account needs these rights configured"

Isn't that covered by the text above? Honestly not sure about how to flesh it out better without going full tutorial mode. :/

The text sounded so prose-like, I was hoping there might be some technical names for the privileges ore something like that .. I mean .. I guess there is, its apparently 00299570-246d-11d0-a768-00aa006e0529 :)

I presume in the gui/wizard/whereever you could click this its just called "change password" ?

In the GUI it's all grouped in under "All extended rights".

It's also.. very hidden away that you can set it at all (need to use the low-level ADSI Edit tool to even see ACLs as an option).

In "Active Directory Users and Computers" there are no permission options at all. "ADSI Edit" is a lower-level graphical tool that does expose them.. but is still missing a lot of extended rights (which, yes, just get grouped under "all extended rights").
