I would have included this in D7402. It's hard to understand the need for this function (vs. the existing hash function approach) without reading your comment here. In general I think small utility functions like this should be introduced alongside their callsite, to make it easier for the reviewer to understand why / how they're being introduced. A good rule of thumb (not a hard rule) is whether you have unit tests for it.

Accepting to unblock though

In general I think small utility functions like this should be introduced alongside their callsite, to make it easier for the reviewer to understand why / how they're being introduced. A good rule of thumb (not a hard rule) is whether you have unit tests for it.

Will keep this rule of thumb in mind moving forward
