Got it. You can do something like this:
def user():
form = auth()
if form.errors.old_password:
form.errors.old_password = 'Please enter the old password'
return dict(form=form)
We should probably fix this by having a setting like
auth.messages.missing_old_password. Please open an issue on Github and link
back to this thread.
