Comment (by iandunn):

 It looks like the `user_input` parameter is being ignored.

 If I run `console.log( zxcvbn( 'iandunn', [ 'iandunn' ] ) );` on the
 official demo site at
 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/209/zxcvbn/test/index.html, it returns
 an entropy of `0` because the password appears in `user_input`, but if I
 run that against trunk, it returns `14`.

 I mentioned it to Jon on IRC and he thought that `user_input` needs to
 pass through `rot_13()`.
