Lately I have switched all my C hacking over to Golang (Go). While pass
would need to be compiled individually for each platform, it would keep
portability, including Windows. We should seriously consider re-writing
pass in Go.

Another consideration is that Go doesn't use shared libraries which makes a
compiled Go program easily moved across different distributions within the
same platform by simply copying the executable.
