Password change form

Issue Description

Any idea why both the “New Password” and “Current Password” fields are marked as “optional” in the user’s credentials area, when they clearly aren’t? Also, why the awkward wording — “Secret value of the account” and “The current secret value of the account, used for password verification”?

Expected Behavior

Clear labeling of fields.

Actual Behavior

Reproduction Steps

On the users’s admin page > Credentials> Password.

Let me look into the WebUI source to find the relevant labels for these fields.

The are optional because they are not needed in all cases. For example, changing the MFA code does not require entering a new password again.
