Comment:

 Making an executive decision to close this due to little interest for the
 best part of a decade.

 Notes:

 * [https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/protect-posts-with-
 password/ The support guide for protecting posts with a password]
 documents the password protection feature well, including its behaviour
 when multiple posts share the same password.
 * The `post_password_required` filter has been in place since 4.7 and
 allows custom authentication checks for post passwords (see #38056).
