Why can't we paste in passwords to the change password field?

[Funkagenda]

I use a password manager so I have secure, random passwords that are unique per-site, but I can't paste my new password in because it's disabled.

This is some backwards security theatre crap and should really be changed. Even NIST agrees that password pasting should be allowed:

"Verifiers SHOULD permit claimants to use “paste” functionality when entering a memorized secret. This facilitates the use of password managers, which are widely used and in many cases increase the likelihood that users will choose stronger memorized secrets."

@Funkagenda, sadly this site is not a poster child for security.  The SSL certificates are a mess also.  Most customers would be happy if they fix the parties password reset email.
