Right, so on master. You can't enter in the email or username of a user that uses an external auth method. Only ones that have internal authentication.
The error message is "The email address or username you entered doesn't match any users for this site" Did we want this to determine whether a user is external or not and have a message like "The user you requested uses an external authentication method. Ask your administrator for help with changing your password"??

It should, for those users, explain why they cannot change their password through that screen. There's also, as far as I remember, an API method to export a change password URL. We should check if this works, and if the admin can even set it.
