As others have pointed out, this would be more correctly stated as:

  Those who want it, but don't have the skill
  to code ti, want to demand that someone that
  has the skills, spends their leisure time
  creating it for free because they don't want
  to pay for it.

Aka

  If it is really that important to you, and
  you don't have the skills to do it, you always
  have the option of paying someone that *does*
  have the skills to do it for you.

Apparently in most cases it's just more fun to fire up the email client and rant and rave about how it's 'unfair' that the feature isn't being implemented. And in the more interesting examples claim that the developers are 'Nazis' because they won't heed your bid and call.

What about hashing? Even if hashing is not the best solution, a not-so-good solution is preferable over 7 years of a hole. This is the attitude that make users mad.
