Description
In the forgot password feature I think it would be more beneficial asking for an email.
Reason being a lot of users I find want to use this don't know their username/are too lazy to look for it. However everyone knows their email.
Haven't looked at how it works yet but should be a quick job as i'd imagine all it would is changing get_user_by_username() to get_user_by_email() and a few string changes.
