Actually I have a client who knows his users so well, that he asked me 
to clear-text all the passwords... Yes, he IS aware of the consequences, 
but it allows him, amongst others, to send a username and a clear text 
password, with each mail that goes out to a user.
Even without changing the whole login system, like we did, only keeping 
the original password in the user's data, allows you to do it.
