Does anyone else know of use or interest in 128-bit chacha keys? It would definitely make things a bit simpler if we can omit support for 128-bit keys. (And if we skip it now, we could of course reintroduce it later if it turns out to be needed). Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid C0B98E26.
