One issue I see from time to time with organization users (e.g. a university or hospital Wi-Fi) is a changing IP address for users as they browse and load pages. The whole IP doesn't change, just the last group of 3 digits as that's the IP range assigned to the organization. For example, as a user browses their IP changes from 111.222.333.444 to 111.222.333.555 to 111.222.333.666, etc. This behavior causes the CSRF validation to fail, since the codes are based on $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] (see EasyCSRF.php function referralHash).

It would be helpful to be able to use a partial user ip from $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], rather than the whole ip, for these use cases.
