Comment:

 I'm not ''that'' familiar with wordpress internals, but if you added the
 filetime to the hashes, wouldn't it screw you later if you edit wp-config?
 If you migrate to a new server, or change you db password, or just "touch"
 it, the time will get updated, and any submitted password won't hash to
 the same value...
