Design issues: Am I reading the doc right, that this handshake message
goes after the finished? And then contains a key that is used to
decrypt another key that is then used to decrypt (some) traffic, but
doesn't change the DTLS keys? Why is this a handshake message and not
some protocol framing in the protocol carried over DTLS? It just seems
funny to make it be a handshake type and not something else. It's
entirely possible this makes more sense if you know about DTLS-SRTP
which I do not very much.
