Research direction
Start by tracing the existing /password/forgot and /password/reset flows in the JavaScript application. Review how missing or expired codes, unregistered emails, username-or-email lookup, and successful resets are currently handled. Done should be defined by selecting and implementing a specific subset of these UX ideas, with tests covering each chosen flow.

Description
Problem
Here are some brief ideas on how to improve the UX of the forgot password feature, from a conversation with @snewcomer:
Ideas
- tell the user when that email isn’t registered
- allow it to be reset by username or email (similar to existing issue to allow login by either)
-
/password/resetcould redirect to/password/forgotif there were no code supplied, with an error message -
/password/resetcould redirect to/password/forgotif the code were expired, with an error message -
/password/resetcould show the success message on that page itself, and then have a button to “continue to sign in” (which then does the auto-authentication)
