           Summary: Login using a hashed password
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: API

It seem like that MediaWiki doesn't allow login using a hashed password. The
bot's password can be easily viewed by other people.

My suggestion is to support md5, sha1 or sha256 hashes so that the password
can't be easily unhashed.
