Comment (by ekarulf):
I meant to say compatibility in the API sense and I apologize for the
confusion. If a user were to change their default hash, install the bcrypt
module, and then move their data to a new environment where bcrypt is not
available, it would not allow their users to authenticate.
That said, this seems somewhat inconsistent with the decision in ticket
#3316. The crypt module has the same dump/restore constraints and includes
an additional constraint of restricting the operating system to unix
environments. My goal is not to re-open the ticket nor be argumentative,
but I am new to the django community and I am trying to get a sense of the
framework.
