New Password rules at VRM610

I was looking through the changes for security in VRM610 specifically  
the new system values for password rules. Essentially the old QPWD*  
system values directly related to password rules are replaced  
(supported but obviously deprecated) by a new single system value  
QPWDRULES that takes multiple values. All-in-all a good idea but I  
noticed the following anomaly:

	There appears to be no direct replacement for the QPWDLMTCHR system  
value.

QPWDLMTCHR allows you to force omission of certain characters from  
passwords (typically vowels) but I cannot see a similar function in  
the new rules.

Is this simply a documentation oversight?
Is QPWDLMTCHR still effective even when using the new method?
Have I simply missed something?

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
