This is the same problem as checking the password versus the native (to
postgres) password hashes. I suggested having private tables as an alternative
to that in order for the OP to not have problems with future upgrades, which
was the original question.
I didn't give an opinion on whether or not the whole approach was a good
idea or not, since there wasn't enough detail in the original question.
