Sure. I also thought any improvements can collectively addressed as it is another EC.

Typo I did. Yes it should have been ||.

Yeah it is not necessarily limited wrt n. we can just phrase it:
/**< The SM2 id used by signer and verifier */

In fact, here could be another improvement (applicable to EC as well) to 
keep the params specific to op. Sign/verify only would need this param
(and r , s below).
