Feedback from Bart Preneel about approved KEX schemes:

RSA is not a KEX but a public key encryption scheme.

What should be listed are KEMs as standardized a.o. by ISO: RSA-KEM

I am wondering if the intent in mentioning "RSA" under key exchange mechanism was to include the "RSA transport" TLS key exchange (where some key material is sent to the remote peer by encrypting it using RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5). @danielcuthbert any idea?
