Re: [pkcs11] Groups - AEAD proposal draft 3 uploaded

As you might be able to tell, doing in person meetings with some
of my crypto heads this week :-)

Question came up:

Why can't we have a truly "single operation" call?

That is, combine:
•	C_MessageEncryptInit
and
•	C_EncryptMessage

So it's only necessary to call "C_EncryptMessage" as a truly
single call?

That way, the library implementing the functions will also know
from the first call that this is a single part operation and
can act accordingly?

This may have come up, and I may have just forgotten... thanks!
