Does a change-password registry actually get used, even by bots? I don't see bots checking for a .well-known/change-password url on my sites. It seems a good place to put public configs, just to have a place for them, but not as a means of discovery.

Some password managers, such as Chrome's, offer a "change password" button in the UI that informs the user if their password has been compromised. This is based on .well-known/change-password.
