Well, sure. I just don't want to move backwards on other dimensions
in order to move forward on this one. It's fair to argue that support
of pre-crypted passwords closes only some holes that can be closed in
other ways, but it's equally fair to argue that the limited capability
of a plugin that has to check pre-crypted passwords also represents a
corner case that can be solved in other ways.
