In Norway we have a national patron database, that among other things holds
patron's PIN codes. These are encrypted using a key that only vendors have
access to. To be able to store and transmit the encypted PIN in the correct
format, we need to be able to capture it, and encrypt it in the way the
national patron database expects, so we can sync it to other ILSes. 

This was not my idea, and it might change in the future, but for now it is
something we have to implement, in order to be able to answer RFPs etc.
