Maybe one could also have a default autoincrementing nonce?
If you do that please don't make it the default. There are several cases in DTLS where the nonce isn't simply incrementing (e.g. when receiving packets out-of-order).
I was thinking of _init setting it to zero, and have _digest do post increment. So then you could chose between
Looks ok but I don't like that cycles are wasted in the case one doesn't use it. They are not much but I wouldn't expect that from a low-level library.
I think having an other interface to increment any kind of nonce/iv may be more interesting.
