Introduction
============
High-loaded apps can encounter a shortage of ElGamal/AES+SessionTags tags.
Proposal
========
Add a new flag somewhere within the streaming protocol. If a packets comes with
this flag it means payload is AES encrypted by key from private key and peer's
public key. That would allow to eliminated garlic (ElGamal/AES) encryption and
shortage of tags problem.
May be set per packet or per stream through SYN.
