That doesn't require a new API and would probably simplify some existing
code.

Ctrls for 1-shot aead paket processing like in tls 1.2 would be the easiest solution for tls 1.3 pakets and i agree it could also be extended to the general case.

Though aead is in some sense more than a cipher mode of operation. Providing a dedicated api would have some advantages but i see that maybe i reopen a discussion:

"We are also evaluating the following new features. -New AEAD API [...]"

Was this already evaluated? If yes, what was the result ?
