+ # 1. user update password for himself

+ # Of the two scenarios above, user either authenticate using its
+ # original password or an authentication token. For scenario #1,
+ # if user is authenticating with its original password (i.e. passing
+ # --os-password argument), we can just make use of it instead of using
+ # --original-password or prompting. For scenario #2, admin will need
+ # to specify --original-password option or this won't work because
