Comment:

 Core does not provide any CSS styling for the password form. As it is, it
 will inherit any styles that the theme provides. If the theme does not
 provide any general styling for form inputs, it could end up with browser
 styling, but that would be due to gaps in the theme's styling - there's
 nothing core can do to ensure that theme styles apply to this form.

 I'm a bit curious about the suggestion that this form only inherits
 browser styling and *doesn't* inherit theme styling; that would be very
 unusual. Do you have an example of this?

 When it comes to including a password visibility toggle on this form, I
 don't think that's really feasible. Trying to create styles that will
 universally work in any theme isn't really doable; it's up to the theme to
 implement this.

 In my opinion, this ticket should be closed. The first part is invalid,
 and the second part is just not really feasible.
