Me neither. To clarify, I mention this not as a suggestion, but to motivate asking about the type of message. If the only reason the proofs want them in the handshake bucket rather than the application data bucket is that they say "handshake" in them then, sure, let's do an inconsequential re-spelling and move on from this problem. But presumably something about the messages motivate this key separation issue and I'd like to know what they are. David
