Great.

Thinking about that, doesn't a gnutls_datum_t suffice? Then you don't
need the import/export functions at all. Possibly the
allocate+randomize function could also be merged into one API:
int gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate (gnutls_datum_t *key);
The function would allocate and randomize key->data and set key->size
accordingly. The key->data field needs to be released using gnutls_free
as usual.
