Comment:

 Hi,

 Thanks for your question. It's not possible. I've just checked how
 WordPress handles password changes and noticed it wasn't asking for the
 previous one. I agree we should at least consider stop doing this check or
 making it possible to bypass this check using a filter.

 I'd like to have another opinion from another member of the team about it.
