gmail

I love how the school switched to gmail.  Gmail provides a lot more features as well as a better interface.  However there is one problem, changing your password.  If you have tried and failed or not tried yet let me walk you through the process:
1) Click on settings
2) Go to the accounts tab
3) Click Google account settings
4) Click change password

Why does it take 4 different pages just to do something as simple as changing your password?  Aren't steps 1 and 3 the same?  I actually couldn't figure this out for a couple weeks until I was fed up with it and hunted it down.  As much as I love Google (Chrome, Android, Google Maps) I can't understand why they don't want people to change their password.  It should be click on settings click change password, people shouldn't have to go through all these steps to simply change their password.
