As per my understanding, this will be called on the initialization of UIPlugin. So when, user will install new version of JMC (i.e. 10) the algorithm will be initialized to latest one instead of the older one. The older passwords saved for previous release will anyways be null and void and will not be applicable for new release. Hence backward compatibility is not required here.
