Password storage (was Re: gmail security is a joke)

Bcrypt or PBKDF2 with random salts per password is really what anyone
storing passwords should be using today.

Indeed. A while ago I had a brainfart and presented it in a draft:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kistel-encrypted-password-storage-00

It seemed like a good idea at the time :-) It didn't gain much traction though.
