Feature request: implement "A Well-Known URL for Changing Passwords" #983

Open

Description

The draft spec A Well-Known URL for Changing Passwords defines the URL path .well-known/change-password to be a redirect (any of 302, 303, or 307) to the change password page.

The spec explains,

Client-side password management software helps improve both the security and usability of websites which require authentication. It improves security by reducing cross-site password reuse, and enhances usability by providing autofill functionality.

So this could allow a password manager to link to the change password page, or tell the user whether they are changing the right password for a domain name.
