This is a design topic - I think what you expect and what others would
expect for this will vary.

I think this could be less secure (what if someone asks for a password reset
because someone saw their password, and reset to their own?).

In any case, if you want to only enable a new password after the validation,
you would need to store it, and extend the Auth class, and modify
change_password accordingly.
