This is the same problem as checking the password versus the native (to postgres) password hashes. I suggested having private tables as an alternative to that in order for the OP to not have problems with future upgrades, which was the original question. I didn't give an opinion on whether or not the whole approach was a good idea or not, since there wasn't enough detail in the original question.
