 > I've updated the PR with what I think you mean. Let me know if that's
 what you're thinking and I'll do the rest, else let me know what I
 misunderstood :)

 Yes that is what I ment.

 > I think this can be handled in the BasePasswordHasher unless a hasher
 implements its own must_update logic and in that case it must be on a case
 by case basis.

 Well the `must_update` methods in the hashers could call the base method
 were appropriate. Ie instead of returning `False` when the hash thinks it
 doesn't need an update it can call super().must_update

 > I think it may just be easier to use len(salt) and handle the case where
 salt is None.

 Yes
