The password reset process in Moodle is longer and more invloved than it needs to be.
Currently there are some 14 steps in the standard password reset process from the user clicking the link on the login page (step1), the system displaying the password-reset-request form (step2), the user entering their identifier (step3) ..... right through to the user being logged in (14). I think we can reduce this to 8 steps; improving usability without comprimising security.
In both the existing, and proposed solutions, the user starts with the above steps 1-3, but the processes diverge at step 4, before re-converging at the last step ("User Logged in").
Processes side-by-side, step 4 to completion:
