As I was signing up to a web site today I realised there was another
example to add for Tokens - Invitations. Gmail in the early days had
tokens to allow you to sign up. You got given a few.
These have all the same requirements as authentication tokens - in
particular checked against a database etc. However they tend to be a
lot shorter - e.g. one I used today is wzCWPFnw0d
It would be a mistake though to be too general, it would probably be
better to create Data::Token::Simple if that was required.
