+ Passwords will now be automatically truncated if the max_password_length is
+ greater than the allowed length for the selected password hashing
+ algorithm. Currently only bcrypt has fixed allowed lengths defined which is
+ 54 characters. A warning will be generated in the log if a password is
+ truncated. This will not affect existing passwords, however only the first
+ 54 characters of existing bcrypt passwords will be validated.
