Fix bug when resetting stylesheet on FxApplication
SDK-17691 RTE loading styles
When the FxApplication replaces its style sheet, it unloads the previous skin and loads in a new one. With the new skin, it creates a new instance of the contentGroup. However, when the content is added to the contentGroup, it has already been parented by the previous version of the contentGroup. This causes the RTE because the content is not in the correct state.
The solution is to set the old contentGroup's content property to null when we remove the skin. We also force the contentGroup to validate immediately because the new contentGroup was processing its content array before the oldGroup had removed the content as children.

Answer 1

The password history check is not honored in a password reset. It always been like that and it is documented:
"Password History Length Constraint: If all of the following conditions are true, the following constraints MUST be satisfied:
The requesting protocol message is a password change (as compared to a password set)."http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc245669.aspx
So changing it is not a correcting a bug but asking to change the design. From a pure support perspective, you switched from bug request to design change request. Which might still be arguable if you have a solid business case.
Password set is given through an extended right, so by default only administrators or operators have this right. So it comes down to trust those individual. If you cannot, then you don't give them the right and you implement other identity
management solution (Password Self Reset for example).
