Comment (by sivel):

 Here is another idea.  Modify wp_generate_password to include an
 additional parameter ($extra_special_chars) to add the additional special
 characters used by the API.

 Use wp_generate_password to generate the 64 char random string for the the
 secret keys.  Although I don't really like the added complexities of
 trying to include pluggable.php to get use of wp_generate_password.

 Another option is to leave things as it is.  wp_salt will add an option to
 the options table containing a 12 character key for each of the 4 values
 ou would normally configure in wp-config.php.  We could always update
 wp_salt to use the wp_generate_password function updates attched to this
 ticket.
