+What kind of performance benefit are we talking about here?
+
+It seems it would be a bit hard to implement this, since Backend.Hash uses
+a HashSize that is just an Int, which would have to be extended with the
+number of bits to use of a longer hash. Not hard hard but it will
+complicate the code.

+(Also, the name "SKEIN512_256" is pretty long itself to include in a
+filename.")
