Description
Taking cue from this discussion: https://help.nextcloud.com/t/email-notification-for-password-expiration/148416/
A nice enhancement I'd like to see in Nextcloud is a notification to users whom password is going to expire in x days.
The notifications could be either emails or push notifications (or both?).
Ideally, there should be a toggle in the administrative settings and possibly a text box to choose how many days to send e-mails/notifications to users before the deadline.

Done means agreeing on the delivery method and configuration, then implementing and testing notifications before expiration.
