I think the problem is that there might not be too much overlap between projects so simple that developers would completely outsource user accounts and data management, and projects handling data so sensitive that it’s preferable to completely lose access when password is forgotten (which is very common) than tolerate the slim chance that data could be leaked through hacking.

Perhaps, we'll see! My interest in this project was born out of wanting to do something similar for my own application. Didn't see any good options at the time and now there is one!

  Anyway, other than the password reset issue, this (the self-hosted version) is definitely something I have wanted at some point and might want again in the future. Good luck.

Agreed. I can definitely see myself using this once password reset is an option. I am sure there are use cases with the existing functionality. Telling users their data will be irretrievable if they loose their password would certainly hurt conversions for many types of apps. And it would be a huge headache dealing with those who inevitably dismiss or fail to understand that.
