It sounds to me like "beware! if you leave it blank etc.", that is
encouraging people to enter a password, and I don't like it.
How about something like:
« Leave this blank for better security -- you won't be granted
administration credentials
or
Enter an administration password -- in case you need to perform
administration operations »
?
