I like diceware better than the pronounceable passphrases. Thing is I
often am too lazy to go find the dice, so if this were made easier, or
even for some contributing an external random source like a dice roll
(hey there are rng concerns floating about) might encourage more buy
in. I definitely think it's appropriate to consider i18n aspect, and
not being overly English centric.
