Imported passwords are not working

Description

I'm trying to move a large batch of users from a Craft 3 to a separate Craft 4 websites (only some selected data should be migrated).

I've exported users with passwords thought the Element API:

return [
    'elementType' => User::class,
    'transformer' => function(User $user) {
        $user = User::find()
            ->addSelect(['users.password'])
            ->id($user->id)
            ->one();

        return [
            'firstName' => $user->firstName,
            'lastName' => $user->lastName,
            'password' => $user->password
        ];
    },
];

However, even if the passwords are mapped by FeedMe, the users can't log in with their initial password, probably because of the hash. Why and how to make their passwords working on their migrated accounts?

I know I could ask users to request a new password on the new Craft 4, but this is not the solution I'm looking for.

Steps to reproduce

1. Import users with their passwords
2. Try to log in as a user that you know the password

Confirming this seems to be an open issue for us. I tried with hashed password strings and plaintext passwords. Neither seems to work.
