No, I don't like that at all. It doesn't protect against a DoS in the easiest
place to protect against it, and it leaves the database with entries that do not
have the useful two-way mapping between token and hash.

It would be much simpler to truncate tokens before hashing. There is not going
to be any statistical difference between two tokens that have the same 128 or
200 byte prefix as far as heir being spam or ham signs.
