Just to clarify, we’re not talking about Base32Hex (Section 7 of 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-7 ), right?  I only ask because the 
RFC points out that base32hex is the alphabet used by DNSSEC’s NSEC3 record.  
I’m not sure it matters, but the RFC mentions:
        One property with this alphabet, which the base64 and base32
        alphabets lack, is that encoded data maintains its sort order when
        the encoded data is compared bit-wise.
Would that be useful/relevant/etc. here too?  

In either case, I just thought it would be worth clarifying here.
