I just found out, there is no way to set unusable password for a user
using a command `changepassword`. It's sometimes needed to disable
password authentication, e.g. for robot accounts which use third party
authentication systems and similar cases. I suggest to add an option, e.g.
`--set-unusable-password` to the `changepassword` command which would
allow this.

Comment:

Thanks for this ticket, however the `changepassword` command was never
intended to cover all available options. You can create a custom command
in your project or use a small standalone script instead:
{{{
UserModel = get_user_model()
user =
UserModel._default_manager.db_manager('default').get(username=username)
user.set_password(new_password)
user.set_unusable_password()
user.save()
}}}
