Comment (by ayeshrajans):

 I think this is a great idea. I would also like to suggest that the site
 tries to fetch some random bytes using `random_int`. PHP refuses to return
 any value if there is no cryptographically secure random number generator,
 so if we get an exception, it's a good sign that we are using our own dice
 to get the random numbers.
