Based on Carsten's input, CBOR Core now refers to embedded signatures.
This is also the definition used for PDF files which is a major application
using embedded signatures. Embedded signatures is a logical choice for
designs where the document/message/application is king.

What's missing is a unique label for the embedded signature object, like
simple(88).  Having an application-defined label is certainly not a
showstopper but it would be cool being able to write

    sign(applicationObject)

rather than

    sign(embeddedSignatureLabel, applicationObject)

Why it have to be simple() value instead of a tag?

Of course a tag works as well but a tag seems more natural when there is an 
argument.
Anyway, I got this idea from SD-CWT that uses a simple() as a label with a 
specific meaning.
