Comment (by ttodua):

 Replying to [comment:1 Otto42]:

 Otto, yes I understand that filter does something, but actually the name
 (allow_password_reset) it too general and directly leans the mind that the
 filter should ALLOW/DISALLOW the password reset functionality at all.

 So, with the patch you will see that I refer the more intermediate and
 acceptable way to "disable password resets" totally with a programmatic
 way (i explained why that is important, as many sites [including ours] use
 only Google/Facebook logins, instead of wp-signups), so, when there is
 disabled "password reset" (because there is no need, as on-site
 registrations  are disabled), people shouldn't see even "Lost password?"
 link in the bottom of login page. that's quite logical.
