Comment (by mtredinnick):
I'm probably in favour of this, since it does help with porting existing
apps across to Django (you don't need to recreate all passwords). Feels
like we should document why the functionality is there, though; just not
sure where to do that (in the code or in a doc file somewhere).
Also, for anybody else trying to work out where this applies (since the
patch is ambiguous), it is a patch against
{{{django/contrib/auth/models.py}}}.
When things have quietened down a bit on the developer's list, we should
bring this up for discussion (including the reasoning why it is useful).
It is a change in direction, but that is probably just because we haven't
thought of it before.
