I guess it would depend on how full featured we want the code. The
library provides validation of various things that rolling our own code
likely wouldn't. I mean, it is a library just like libssl or any other
such thing.
I would imagine that rolling our own code would likely be simpler but
the code itself would be dumber (not bad, just not as capable) and we
would be duplicating the effort of an already established project. Do we
really want to do that?
