And, I think there is power in giving the user the choice to have
correct MD5 hashes produced.  Not every use of htpasswd is going to
be fed into apr_password_validate().  If I were to write a new
auth scheme or a CGI script where the client sends a correct MD5
hash of their password and I needed to verify that hash, this
option would be essential.

It isn't the default (heck, we could remove the option from the
help or rot13 the option description), but even if it produces
something not portable with apr_password_validate() but is a correct
MD5 hash, I think we should allow users to produce it.  -- justin
