When writing unit tests, it helps a lot being able to mock the results of these functions depending on the input.
Right now it is a big hassle doing this since we have to mock the byte-array versions and then mimic the internal implementations of the extension methods in DataProtectionCommonExtensions. I can't even get it to work properly for a particular use case. It would be very beneficial to have the directly on the interface.

What are you unit testing here? Your own data protection implementation?
