We did have a discussion on the ML, and I think a little at one of the PTGs,
about the path forward for this. IIRC, there was one other potential supported
package that was considered for an option, but we settled on cryptography as
the recommended path forward to get off of pycrypto. I think it had to do with
ease of being able to just drop in the new package with minimal affected code.
