Comment:

 It seems like core doesn't provide any lostpassword links with the
 `wp_lang` parameter by default?

 Since we only want to add the `wp_lang` parameter and not all possible
 parameters, [attachment:"53226.2.diff"] should be sufficient in this case.

 But I think this is actually a bigger issue since non of the current links
 in wp-login.php pass a possible `wp_lang` parameter to the next screen.
 For example on the lostpassword screen we also have the login and a
 registration link. Those should probably also use the same locale?
 And with #53321 we also want to make sure that the redirections in case of
 an expired/invalid key will also use the same locale.

 Wondering if a cookie for the locale which is only used on wp-login.php
 could simplify this a bit.
