I think the problem of speed could be solved by more power - or using PadLock an Hardware Accellerator for AES.

If you'd store the users Password hash AES encrypted und use the md5(user-input) as password to decrypt the password hash it would be diffcult for the attacker to steal the hash because it isn't stored in clear anywhere.

The point is - that in my eyes - it is a truly good feature. I am hosting a fudForum with about 400 users myself providing certain privacy. I would invest in AES Accellerating Hardware to make the Forum work good - if there would be forum the would support it.

But I understand if you don't want to implement such a feature as maybe there aren't enough people who actually need it. Probably I'll give it a try an patch a fudForum myself to see wether the idea works.
