Saw this module come through the RSS feed, and just thought I'd let you know that core already accounts for md5-hashed passwords (required for 6.x sites upgrading to 7.x). See user_update_7000 for details. If you're using the migrate module, it has similar logic for retaining md5'd passwords.

Thx jhedstrom. user_update_7000 will append the 'U' to the beginning of the pass, causing a double-md5 hash in user_check_password using standard includes/password.inc.

This sandbox module is just for whatever cases where you need to preserve an unmodified md5 hash pass in the Drupal user table, e.g. user integration with an older phpbb2 system or the like.
