Comment (by marcelo2605):

 Thanky for the reply @johnbillion!

 I'm working on a website where most of the target audience doesn't have an
 email account and for them we will use SMS notifications. So, in the
 register form, I created a field to store the phone number and,
 internally, I generate a fake email address using this phone number and
 the webiste domain.

 To authenticate the phone number in the login form, I'm using the
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/authenticate/
 authenticate] filter, receiving the phone number in the `$username`
 variable.

 But I need a similar filter to validate the phone number in the lost
 password form. That why I'm doing this suggestion. I recognize that is a
 specific situation, but I believe this filter could give more control over
 the lost password form.

 Regarding the `$_POST`, I made a new commit removing it from the filter
 hook.
