Just out of curiosity, why are you wrapping the ServiceError::InvalidPassword to a ServiceError:WrongPasswordOrUsername. Is it because you want to have the Invalid password error info in the validate_password function and then return a more generic error to the caller?

Hi @josecelano, In the "change password" form, I want to inform the user that the current password is not valid. However, in the "login form," I don't want to reveal why the login failed, whether it was because of a wrong email or password. If we returned the "invalid password," people could use the login form to find out if a given email/username is registered in the application.
