* This implementation strictly follows RFC 4648, and as such unlike
30+
* the {@link Base32} and {@link Base64} implementations,
31+
* it does not ignore invalid alphabet characters or whitespace,
32+
* neither does it offer chunking or padding characters.
33+
*
34+
* The only additional feature above those specified in RFC 4648
35+
* is support for working with a lower-case alphabet in addition
36+
* to the default upper-case alphabet.
