      This ticket is a request to simplify the mongocrypt_ctx_setopt_key_alt_name api to accept key_alt_name as a char *.

      The current version:

      /**
 * Set the keyAltName to use for explicit encryption.
 * keyAltName should be a binary encoding a bson document
 * with the following format:
 *
 *   { "keyAltName" : <BSON UTF8 value> }
 *
...
mongocrypt_ctx_setopt_key_alt_name (mongocrypt_ctx_t *ctx,
                                    mongocrypt_binary_t *key_alt_name);

      My suggested change:

      mongocrypt_ctx_setopt_key_alt_name (mongocrypt_ctx_t *ctx,
                                    const char *key_alt_name,
                                    int len);

      This matches how strings are passed in other parts of the api, eg:

      mongocrypt_ctx_setopt_algorithm (mongocrypt_ctx_t *ctx,
                                 const char *algorithm,
                                 int len);
