      CAPTCHA should be pluggable in JIRA

      CAPTCHA is supposed to stop spam and other automated nefarious usage of systems.

      But there is an arms race of CAPTCHA breaking and then coming up with new and better CAPTCHA solutions.

      IN addition, like many others, JIRA's current CAPTCHA can be difficult for humans to read, see JRA-16559 .

      So if JIRA had a pluggable CAPTCHA capability, it would be possible for JIRA to more quickly benefit from available advances in CAPTCHA protection without a change to the core product.
