 I try add filter function to get_the_password_form() function for the sake
 of improving HTML. I use 'the_password_form' hook:

 {{{
 add_filter('the_password_form', 'improve_password_form');
 function improve_password_form($output)
 {
         return '        <div class="password-form">'.$output.'</div><!--
 .password-form -->';
 }
 }}}

 When I look at HTML-code I see tags <p> and </p> that added in different
 places:

 {{{
 <div class="password-form">
 <form action="http://mysite.com/wordpress/wp-pass.php" method="post">
 ……
 <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" /></p></form>
 </p></div>
 <p><!-- .password-form --></p>
 }}}

 I don’t understand how <p> and </p> can appear about “<!-- .password-form
 -->” string. It must not be there. When I delete my filter all is correct
 and form have view like in wp-includes/post-template.php.

 I think it is bug. I can’t use 'the_password_form' filter hook to modify
 form.
