Re:Scribd hacked – emails and hashed passwords leaked

For the future, I wonder how useful it would be to run old hashed passwords through a newer system such as scrypt. This way those users who haven't logged in in awhile could also benefit from the safer hashed passwords.
In the future, you could even do it again with more cpu and memory requirements for scrypt, upgrading older users' hashes again with another run of scrypt.
