            Bug ID: 247581
           Summary: Improve clarity of cryptographically random number
                    functions
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Template Framework
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: darin at apple.com

1) Change the 3 callers of cryptographicallyRandomUint32 to use cryptographicallyRandomNumber instead.
2) Remove cryptographicallyRandomUint32.
3) Move cryptographicallyRandomUint64 to CryptographicallyRandomNumber.h
4) Move cryptographicallyRandomUnitInterval to CryptographicallyRandomNumber.h.
5) Rename cryptographicallyRandomUint64 to cryptographicallyRandomUInt64 or cryptographicallyRandom<uint64_t>.
6) Consider renaming cryptographicallyRandomNumber to cryptographicallyRandomUInt32 or cryptographicallyRandom<uint32_t>.
7) Consider renaming weakRandom to weakRandomUInt32 or weakRandom<uint32_t>.
8) Consider renaming RandomNumber.h to WeakRandomNumber.h.
9) Document that cryptographicallyRandomUnitInterval has only 32 bits of randomness in it to further discourage uninformed use of it.
