It is simple enough. If the passowrd string is missing, then
the advertised default could be to put the gpg id as the password.
The user supplied string is not allowed to have a `@` char..
In this case, would we still need the hash?
23415 seq-n0-12:user-string-EDF34
12534 seq-n0-13:user-string-srivasta@debian.org
34629 seq-no-14:user-string-EDF34
23514 seq-no-15:user-string-this_is_may_life
23514 seq-no-16:user-string-srivasta
The seq number disambiguates the user provided string. The
names of all who voted shall be presented in alphabetical order.
What's the objection to this proposal? (we can randomize how
the sequence number alloted is related to the alphabetical order of
voter or the order in which mail was received)
