Yes, it is a totally new work and it probably needs more time to have a
design working well for most of use cases.
As I already discussed with Olivier, I think it should be considered as
experimental. It means we can try it but do not consider it as a stable
API. So the deprecation process would not apply until the experimental
flag is removed.

For the release 2.2, it would be better to remove the crypto dependency
in mbuf. Do you think it is possible?
