Dear Alessio,
Wow, that read like a ton of great work was done that should be merged
'soon' ;-). I have one comment:

I'm a bit confused by this, I don't recall making this change or
discussing something like this with anyone. What I do recall is that we
added the cipher type sometime in the past. However, prefixing by a
readable representation of the string length!?!? Why would we do that?
I'm confused. If anyone could clarify this, I'd much appreciate it!
Happy hacking!
Christian
