a user that has the permissions to see their profile can change their
password thru
https://localhost:8443/mypage/control/editlogin
and be able to access this thru
https://localhost:8443/mypage/control/main
the user has to have mypage permission.
I just tested this.
Note: they can not change their permissions.
Should be on the user mailing list
