I've been using Forge to provide me with cryptographic primitives so I can communicate with a program written in another programming language. This existing program uses RSA keys with OAEP padding, so I implement it, using forge's primitives. If I were to send a pull request, would you accept this into Forge itself? It isn't useful for SSL/TLS (so maybe that is a no), but it would be useful for others who might want to use Forge to implement other systems (which seems like a bonus to me).

Thanks!

Sure! Forge does more than just TLS. We'll definitely take a look at the pull request. Thank you.

Yes please!!1 I have been looking for an OAEP padding implementation in Javascript but haven't really found anything good. I think it would give Forge a major advantage if it supported OAEP padding. Judging from StackOverflow, crypto.stackexchange.com and other developer communities, it seems like pretty much everyone who are doing JS crypto are looking for this.

Looking forward to see the pull request! ;)
