Nice idea, but actually it isn't - i.e. there does not exist an octet
sequence that will encode to that string, and a decoder "should" reject
it as invalid. But maybe that is a feature?:-)

(By definition, there can be at most 2 trailing '=' characters in the
encoding. You can have "base64encode" or e.g. "base64encodedA==", but I
guess neither is as appealing...)
