Bug Description

I have recently noticed that when going "Settings > Users > Password" that when typing in a password that is accepted, even if the caps lock is off, hovering over the tick says "Caps Lock is on" as shown in the attached screenshot (it's the case in all the fields by the way in case the screenshot in any way confuses you).
