Ahh sorry. I read this

That's what I get for not having my coffee before getting to work :(
Replying to [comment:42 Florian Apolloner]:

compatible with what we have now :/
Certainly something for the future :)
So, the easy next step is to change `salt` to work in terms of bits rather
than in terms of number of characters which returns a string of some
length.
On the encoding function. How much flexibility is there in terms of hash
storage? Can a given hasher define a binary encoding for instance?
