Certainly a good - and probably the best - option right now.
But maybe there are simpler alternatives. Maybe passwords shoudn't mean anything, just like losing a key on a busy street is not exactly a security threat to its owner, password leaks shouldn't be harmful. Maybe the problem is not how passwords are stored or encrypted but how meaninful our 'ids' are - and how they are attached to that password.
