  * Time period: The amount of time you expect user to take filling out
    such forms.

* ``contrib.auth`` user password hash-upgrade sequence

  * Consequences: Each user's password will be updated to a stronger password
    hash when it's written to the database in 1.4. This means that if you
    upgrade to 1.4 and then need to downgrade to 1.3, version 1.3 won't be able
    to read the updated passwords.

  * Remedy: Set :setting:`PASSWORD_HASHERS` to use your original password
    hashing when you initially upgrade to 1.4. After you confirm your app works
    well with Django 1.4 and you won't have to roll back to 1.3, enable the new
    password hashes.
