+  # MessageVerifier makes it easy to generate and verify messages which are signed
+  # to prevent tampering.
+  # 
+  # This is useful for cases like remember-me tokens and auto-unsubscribe links where the
+  # session store isn't suitable or available.
+  #
+  # Remember Me:
+  #   cookies[:remember_me] = @verifier.generate([@user.id, 2.weeks.from_now])
+  # 
+  # In the authentication filter:
+  #
+  #   id, time = @verifier.verify(cookies[:remember_me])
+  #   if time < Time.now
+  #     self.current_user = User.find(id)
+  #   end
