I think it would be nice if it was as short as possible, too, because
this will be a blob of stuff in a file that people would be editing.
Which is why I kinda like the
secret gpg:<base 64> idea.
If we put all the secrets into the same blob, we can say stuff like
address@hidden@ssalt
that is, make the token names really short (one character), and use NUL
as the separator, so that we can put random other characters (including
space) into the passwords...

Well, I'd hoped that you'd implement this. :-)
