But they are not the same. In the example of stream1 and stream2 that I gave,
passing stream2's initData would only cause the keys for stream2 to be loaded.
Not the keys for stream1, even though those keys were delivered in the same
session. The same is true if stream1's initData was used to load a session
later. This would not be useful in combination with key release, but would be
very useful on its own.
