I hate to be too pragmatic about this, but you only have the single
dependency on commons-codec, right? Also, you have no other bootstrap
dependencies, right? So...

Why not just implement a Base-64 en/decoder?  It's not that hard (I did
it in like 2 hours, with JUnit tests, from the RFC)...

Maybe I'm being naive.
