On a related note, I've been experimenting with using a simple word list (like the eff diceware list) to generate strings of words encoding data. Trickiest part is figuring out how to encode padding, and the eventual size of the word list, and how complicated the final solution should be (eg using word lists that are not even binary numbers and leftover bits and all that). The diceware word list is nice since the words are not ambiguous and don't have homophones.

I assumed there would be existing implementations of something similar but have not found one that fits criteria other than some that use very small word lists. Diceware has 7776 words and pushing that to 8192 should be feasible and is a bit easier to work with.
