Surely it wouldn't be that big a deal to generate a prime of, say, 4k
bits, or whatever size gives people suitably warm fuzzies, to replace
the current group-14 prime?  I'd be happy to do the crucnhing for it,
and I can't be the only person with RNG hardware and enough spare
cycles to invest in whatever level of primality assurance keeps people
happy.
