When resetting password the user might have forgotten which email he linked to his account.
We need to at least send an email saying that the email is wrong rather than having the flow unfold successfully only to find out the email was wrong at the very end.

I got also feedback that it was strange to enter the pwd and confirm on the first screen and may the email should be validated first by sending a message with a link allowing to set the new pwd, but I'm unconvinced... To be reconsidered.

actually, it's not a dup - #2780 is password reset; this is password change.

would be very strange behaviour, I've not seen any platforms which do this

The concern over entering pwd before the email is now covered by element-hq/element-meta#359

Closing the ticket as I agree with #889 (comment) that we won't implement that behaviour.
