I presume that the intended purpose of this is to give better feedback for a password challenge. I'm not sure why there is a confirm field in the demo. Perhaps to show that the color is consistent. It helps in that it lets the user know that the password is wrong the instant they've finished typing it, which might be a nice touch if it takes a long time to verify a password. They still don't know where the mistake is though, so they have to retype the entire password.

So the big win of this feature is that users might get their color combo burned into their head, and submit fewer bad passwords to the server when they bother to manually enter their password and take the time to look at and process the given colors. Wow. Is there a Nobel Prize for web design yet?
