It could be something with the session. As I wrote: the first form
(request_reset_password) works fine - it validates, it sends email with
reset link. But after the link is clicked and the reset_password form
appears - the form is useless, new password can't be created.
You wrote that possibly the _formkey check does not pass when
submitting. Any ideas how to debug in such case? If it's not this, it could
be everything.
