Research direction

Locate the test for GET /_matrix/client/r0/capabilities and compare its assertions with the specification for m.change_password and m.room_versions. Confirm that the test no longer requires fields the specification marks as optional, then run the focused capabilities test to verify responses without those fields are accepted.
