It looks for a match on the client public key. The metadata will (not
yet implemented) be available to the application so it knows where a
message came from.

There's no chance of a race. Every client public key is unique and you
can store any number of certificates in a suitable database (CZMQ uses
an in-memory hash table but this is just one possibility).
