I think 'Oj4=puC/8jq' is much easier to memorize due to the fact, that
it has 3 groups of 3 chars each: Oj4 puC 8jq, separated by '=' and '/',
while the token T2o0PXB1Qy84anEK is much complex to memorize, don't
you agree?
Btw: I'm fine with storing the pws in clear text in pidgin, because
it is a personal computer, and one will not bring them on the screen
without knowing why he/she is doing that.
