Comment (by sabernhardt):

 Backward compatibility is not really an obstacle to this change, but it
 could present some challenges with multiple existing filters and custom
 CSS.
 I've used a [https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/customize-login-page
 /#custom-css-to-login custom stylesheet] and some of the filters.

 Supporting custom CSS (that's already implemented) is not as difficult I
 had thought with the replaceable background image and text clipping.
 Anyone who has replaced the logo with a logo of different dimensions
 probably edited the `.login h1 a` image and/or size without modifying the
 `h1`. It would be good to add a class to the H1 tag to facilitate any
 overrides, though, for plugins that continue to support older WordPress
 versions.

 Some other considerations:
 1. The wp-login.php file is also used for registration and password-
 changing forms.
 2. The Powered by WordPress message could be moved to the bottom, with
 site branding at the top.
