  Log Message:
  -----------
  Password reset request - generally tighten it up

* Can only specify name or email not - not the looser search done by model.User.search()
  which allowed: partial name, partial fullname (and if sysadmin: partial emails) etc
  (This was originally loose to be helpful, but the balance with security changed)
* Don't confirm whether a user exists or not
* Logging for audit purposes
