+To store passwords securely, they should be salted, then hashed with a
+slow hash function. This library uses PBKDF1-SHA256, and handles all the
+details. It uses the cryptohash package for speed; if you need a pure
+Haskell library, pwstore-purehaskell has the exact same API, but uses
+only pure Haskell. It is about 25 times slower than this package, but
+still quite usable.
