Because you allow the passing in of an arbirtary salt on encoding, you
should either check the salt length on encoding (ensuring len 8) or,
better, do the following:

   def checkPassword(self, storedPassword, password):
       salt = storedPassword[:len(storedPassword)-40]
       return storedPassword == self.encodePassword(password, salt)

That'll capture any salt length as the sha.hexdigest output is always
40 characters long.
