I've failed to figure out the semantic behind queue_id. This could mean,
that sessions and session_id's are queue scoped. But then we should be
(IMHO) more explicit on this -- my guess is that session_id's aren't
dataqueue scoped.

I guess an invalid queue_id would be among these.

Destroy does not need to specify queue_id. That means session_id's aren't
queue scoped from namespace perspective. The question remains what is
queue_id good for, and whether a session type op request should be
rejected if the the session id originates from a session creation
request specifying a different dataqueue (not the dataqueue containing
the given request)?

[..]

I've run through the rest. It some stuff seems very repetitive. I wonder if
we can do better.

I also dislike this 5.7.7.5.3 Steps of Operation part. I also don't
understand why is symmetric special in this respect (HASH, MAC and
AEAD don't have a 'Steps of Operation' section.

I would like to try some things out with the reference implementation.
Depending on how that goes I may or may not end up providing a detailed
review for the rest before discussing what I've already addressed.

Halil
