Description
Description:
When trying to reply in a thread in a password-protected channel, there is a prompt for the channel password instead of the message input box. The prompt does not accept the correct password though, so there is no chance to reply in a thread in password-protected channels.
Steps to reproduce:
In a password-protected channel, hit "reply in a thread" on some message in the channel.
Expected behavior:
Ability to send a reply in thread.
Actual behavior:
Non-functional password prompt.
Server Setup Information:
- Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 3.4.3
Additional context
- My first thought is that this might have been introduced with #17416, but I did not look into the code deep enough to recognize if it was and/or point to a specific piece of code.

Research direction
No files, tests, or code entry points are named. Reproduce the thread-reply flow in a password-protected channel and trace where the password prompt replaces the message input; done means a valid password allows the thread reply to be composed and sent.
