With the recent discussions regarding std.crypt/std.hash, I

I would love to see D support SHA3 ASAP. I cringe at the fact
that many still use MD5.
MD5 is good enough for most cases. AFAIK, keccak uses weird bit
fiddling. Wasn't it considered a bad practice since DES because a
specialized hardware would give a considerable speedup, which
will help in brute force attacks?
