endian taken into account here:
I use endianness only as an easily understood example of an issue that makes the needs of a cryptographic hash interface different from an unordered container hash interface. There are other issues, which require a move involved discussion than I think is appropriate in this thread. For example, we cannot have distinct cryptographic and non-cryptographic serialization algorithms for the same type (using n3980). The bottom line is that n3980 needs to go through more iteration and study with respect to its usage for cryptographic hash algorithms before we can state that the interface is well suited for it. Thanks
