Module Description
This module makes the "current password" field on the user edit form optional.
Drupal 7 added a new feature: If a user changes their email or password, they are required to enter their current password. (see the 15+ year old issue: https://www.drupal.org/node/86299)
However, the implementation causes problems for certain edge cases. (For example, http://drupal.org/node/889772) Or, you may just not like the design decision. Either way, this module makes it optional.
