I had installed No Current Password module: https://drupal.org/project/nocurrent_pass to avoid the bug where new users are asked to enter the "current password" even though there is none since it's a new account. I even tried this tip of adjusting module weights: https://drupal.org/node/1898788 but in the end I found that disabling the Password Tab module fixed the problem. I guess the problem is due to the No Current Password is not aware of the form on the separate Password Tab.

I wrote a patch that might fix the "current password" problem with Password Change Tab alone. See #2206025: Reset Password asks for current password. The best solution would probably be to fix that bug, which caused you to try using No Current Password.

No Current Password does not work with Password Change Tab because, as you suggested, it targets the user_profile_form form while for Password Change Tab it needs to target the password_policy_password_tab form. If No Current Password is to interoperate with Password Change Tab, I think No Current Password would need to add special handling for Password Change Tab, rather than the reverse. That is, it would need to change to also target the password_policy_password_tab form. I'm not sure how it could work the other way around. So I am setting this issue as "won't fix". Please change if you disagree with my assessment.
