=item * Update the matrix processing code so that it can detect when
padding of input is required and handle it by itself. The changes
required to implement this can be made in such a way as to preserve
compatibility with any code implemented using the current semantics.

=item * Offer the choice of padding input with random padding rather
than null padding. While it's beyond the scope of this document to
present an analysis of the algorithm from a cryptographic standpoint,
it may be possible that padding with predictable zero bytes may weaken
the security of this implementation. Padding with random data should
remove that potential weakness.

=item * Force or give the option of always using the highest-quality
RNG available (see L<KNOWN BUGS>).

=item * Give the option of using other RNG sources (such as for
inferior platforms which do not have an equivalent of /dev/[u]random)
