Thanks to some of its nice security properties, curve25519 has become
incredibly popular as the curve of choice for new projects[1]. As such, it
would be incredibly nice for it to be included in the NamedCurve dictionary.

[1] See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve25519#Notable_uses and
http://ianix.com/pub/curve25519-deployment.html for some massive lists.
Specifically, I'm filing on behalf of Open Whisper Systems and TextSecure.
