I'm not sure that we need searchlist functionality for any reason
other than support for folks who need to interop _locally_ with
implementations that use the old /tmp/krb5cc_uid scheme.  If that's so
then you might want one more option:

4.  Searchlists only for ccache, and if none of the possible ccaches
exist, then return the first one.

You might add:

5.  If no {ccache, keytab} exists, return the first one.

Otherwise, from your options my preference is #1, else #3.  I'm not
wild about #3 either, but I'm less wild about #2 (including #2a).
