Comment:

 I'm wondering if using `position: absolute` is going to be problematic no
 matter what, especially when we take into account all the various things
 that plugins can do to customize the login screen.

 For instance, if someone adds some extra text via `login_head`, the link
 can be still positioned over top of other elements, even with
 [attachment:44046.diff] applied
 ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/44046/Screen%20Shot%202018-05-14%20at%2012.56.41.png
 screenshot]).

 [attachment:44046.2.diff] replaces the absolute positioning with margins,
 to provide some visual separation between the "action" links and the
 policy link.

 @melchoyce: do you think that would be an acceptable compromise to
 accomplish your design goals?

 Does anyone else have any feedback on that?
