Would be good to develop user section for edit data

Do you mean something like a "my profile" form after a user has logged in?

Yep

I actually had that in an early version, but removed it because it usually doesn't fit the end result's use case or design. User profile pages are usually much more than just a bit of master data, so the form - and even the underlying controller - would need to be changed and/or extended anyway, and I don't want to make too many prescriptions as to how to use the models provided by this package. I want to deliver a solid foundation to build your user model on top of.

Having said that, I can imagine a documentation chapter that explains how to build a profile manipulation page with this package, in a tutorial-style type of writing.

I see but password change form is something basic, and I think everyone will try to implement some custom stuff so probably would be better to implement simple functionality. This small feature will save a time for many people's.

For password change, I can see that working. Would require some sort of UserProfileController to make it work - will consider that when I next have time to work on UM. I'm very happy to accept code contributions too of course, so if you already implemented something in that direction, I'd be happy to see it.
