I honestly didn't think that this was the dead obvious function to
use. To me the naming kind of suggested that it would do some
special magic that tokens needed, instead of just returning random
bytes (even though the best token is probably just perfectly random
data). If you want to provide a general function for secure random
bytes I would suggest at least a better naming.
