I've implemented this for trac 0.11, ie, the trunk version of this plugin.
You can download a patch from here and the admin config panel changes from here.
Basically if the option to force the users to change passwords after a password reset is enabled, the user will always be sent to /prefs/account after login to change his password with a nice warning message.

FYI, this is a 0.11 only feature. Also, it is on by default and can be turned off in the account manager admin page.
