Comment:

 Hi @cederom and welcome to trac!

 I don't think adding such an option would be a good idea for a couple of
 reasons:

 * if set incorrectly, administrators may lock themselves out of their site
 if they don't have WP CLI access
 * it's additional code to maintain for a minority of sites

 As Jeff suggests in the comment above, this seems best served by a plugin
 in your case. You can lock these screens down using the
 `login_form_lostpassword`, `login_form_retrievepassword`, and
 `allow_password_reset` hooks.

 I'm going to close this off as unplanned as it's currently achievable via
 existing hooks.
