I like that simplehash is simple, so I'm not inclined to introduce an
always-on feature.
It would be interesting to know how often it's a good idea to turn it
on, though. I could try turning it on for various other uses of
simplehash, and see where it tends to win.
The caller can also save the hash and pass it down, but that's not
always convenient to do.
