Comment:

 Hi,

 I didn't understand the use case of this `extra_context`.

 I think the same result it's possible to achieve overwriting the template.

 Can you explain better the use case of this new `extra_context`?

 For the patch/pull request:

 1 - It'd need to update docs:
 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.password_change

 2 - It'd need to update the provided template, currently it's ignoring
 `extra_context`

 Thanks.
