Form wizard docs mention that MD5 hashes are made using
settings.SECRET_KEY -
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/formtools/form-wizard/#django.contrib.formtools.wizard.FormWizard.security_hash

If you give me a value, I give you a hash back, and you're aware that
I'm using Django (think BitBucket which everyone knows is using
Django), couldn't I use those values to learn your secret key. I
understand this would be difficult and time consuming to try to
accomplish, and I apologize if I'm raising unwarranted alarms, but I
thought it was worth mentioning.

Also, why MD5? I thought Django was switching to SHA1 for security
reasons.
