Comment (by Jon Moroney):

 I agree with the idea of having the salt function view the `salt_len` in
 terms of bits of entropy, but I'm unclear on the encoding idea. Aren't the
 password entries stored as long strings and wouldn't that force any bytes
 to be coerced back into ascii least we break decoding of entries on
 retrieval?
