Thank you for the comment. It helps :)
It would be nice to have patch, I agree.
I don't have luxury to write code that would not be used...
I don't mind to have vote for proposed patch and improve, though.
Is a patch must have requirement for RFC?
I think it worth to agree what we should have, then decide/write code
like timing safe string comparison.
I wouldn't write number of timing safe functions to compare their
performance unless it was decided to include.

I hope you change your mind.
