Not sure, it really depends on the server I guess.  All PyIRCt is
doing is sending the password at connect time (like the irc spec
allows).

This used to be for password protected servers (or if your nick was
reserved by the admin, or if you had an o-line).  These days some
Nickserv's detect and use that password for identification.   What
nickserv _does_ with that password is up to the implementation.
