The login page showing no 'Forgot Password' link

The gerrit login page doesn't have an option 'Forgot password' or 'reset password' so as to reset the password, if lost.
This is an essential feature, which almost all login pages should have.

Isn't that because we are using LDAP for authentication and all forgotten passwords need to be recovered using labsconsole a.k.a. wikitech?

I could only imagine a link that sends you to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:PasswordReset

Shouldn't the gerrit login page have a link to the same too to fit user convenience?
