Wouldn't it make sense to rather have a complete separate function for setting
the key based on the ID? I.e. we have one function for setting the key based
on a user-given buffer. A second function handles your additional code. As
both are unrelated, I would not suggest to clutter one function with the logic
of the other.

Why do you want to limit it to akcipher? I would think it can apply to all
types of keys. You mention that you want to restrict it to akcipher, but where
do you see the limitation for HMAC / skcipher?
