As I understand it, isenkram is just a proof of concept of the idea.
It also seems to be a reimplementation of discover?

AIUI SHA-512 is faster than SHA-256 on many processors, and not
usually slower on the others. If the hashes are too long, they can be

Aye.

I'd say the "source" is the combination of the SVG files plus the adjusted PNGs.

Security reasons. It weakens isolation between guest and host. See also
