 * When you use the option to create a Password Protected Page you, obviously, have
   the opportunity to select the Password, but the text that appears on the page
   when opened by a site visitor is not editable. Although the provided text is 
   clear it is not necessarily what the site owner wants to provide to a visitor
   and I have also seen requests for this to be in a different language.
 * Before someone states the obvious, yes I know that the text can be edited with
   a code snippet, either in functions.php, with a child theme or via a code insert
   plugin, but really, should this be necessary?
 * Surely, there must be a simple way to provide a means for the text on this page
   to be an editable item?

 * All text included with WordPress Core can be customized via language files. You
   can certainly customize the text using the Loco Translate plugin as well: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/)
 * If you see room for improvement here, feel free to open a ticket in Core Trac
   so that core developers can review it, evaluate it, and implement changes if 
   necessary: [https://core.trac.wordpress.org](https://core.trac.wordpress.org)
