Slightly OT, but this is a perfect reason to regard javascript crypto as dangerous. If one of the most heavily scrutinized cryptographic protocols can have what is in retrospect, a fairly obvious flaw (WEP fell to a very similar predictable IV attack), the average developer does not stand a chance of getting it right implementing it from scratch in an environment they do not have strong control over.
