Hello, I did a review of the latest draft and the integrated encryption examples and proposed format will work for my existing implementation with minor changes on my side.
However there is still one major blocker for my use of it. I still need an algorithm for "HPKE-P256-SHA256-A256GCM" that used today, otherwise I cant use the new standard when approved. While I dont think the format should determine if the HPKE cipher suite is valid (HPKE should do that), or if the algorithm strength is sufficient for the intended use (this is sender/receiver policy), we are already past that. If we add another "HPKE-X" algorithm or a way to handle adhoc combinations then it would work for me.
