This is really a bad thing,it's like forgetting a bank account password, but there's no bank to call to reset it.
Because the point is to "be your own bank". Think about it, if it was easy to recover lost bitcoin "passwords", then that would be a huge flaw that a lot of hackers can exploit. Using bitcoin and it's advantages also comes with risks, and this is one of them. It's your money anyway, why would you be so careless with your password.
