Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:5 peterwilsoncc]:
 > I'm not seeing this change. The post password appears to be stored in
 plain text still. Is it possible there was some confusion with user
 passwords?

 That's what I found too (hence didn't commit the current patch). When
 testing on trunk, post passwords are indeed stored in plain text.

 Replying to [comment:6 dd32]:
 > The change wasn't to store post_password in a hashed form, but rather to
 cease storing it in the access cookie in plaintext and instead store a
 hash there.. #19797 #3316

 That sounds right :)
