It's not.  It was accidentally changed to plain-text in 3.0 to support LDAP=
 and a community member found it changed from 2.2.x.  We've reverted it now=
 to pass in MD5 hashed again.  If you want to enable LDAP Auth, you would n=
ow need an additional step to modify the UI to pass in a plain-text passwor=
d, if you wish.

Abhi, is this a backwards incompatible API change?   Also, what does it mea=
n for upgrade?

I thought we always sent MD5 hashed passwords from UI to MS.  Can you expla=
in the change a bit more?
