Hi,
I didn't understand the use case of this extra_context.
I think the same result it's possible to achieve overwriting the template.
Can you explain better the use case of this new extra_context?
For the patch/pull request:
1 - It'd need to update docs:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.password_change
2 - It'd need to update the provided template, currently it's ignoring extra_context
Thanks.

Since the ticket was opened, each_context() has been added to the AdminSite class, so it's possible to provide additional context fields by subclassing AdminSite and overriding each_context(). Does this make this ticket unnecessary? I'll happily fix up the patch if it's useful, but I don't want to do that if the feature is no longer needed.
