Comment:

 One could imagine use cases for this function. For example a website that
 automatically creates accounts and sends out the plain passwords (through
 email, or something more secure) for a first log in - but then forces
 password change on first use.

 But I agree with Carlton (and Russell) that Django shouldn't "encourage"
 this, since the implementation then requires some special attention.
 +1 for deprecating this function
