Would be helpful to enable users who forgot their passwords to be able to retrieve it for log in through the app.

It is presently not possible to trigger a password reset email over the API, so this task is impossible to complete. Marking as stalled, accordingly.

The work to unblock this is tracked in T32788.

This task should be possible now, given the recent API changes: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=resetpassword

(Even if not possible, we should provide at least a link to Safari/mobile reading web's password reset.)
