Reading this question, I believe that there's a possibility for the question to 
be misinterpreted, since the sense of the question in the subject is opposite 
of the sense of the question in the body.  I believe that the intent of 1 and 2 
were as follows:

1.  Yes - Use cases where key information is exchanged by means other than the 
JWS and JWE headers ARE important.
2.  No - Use cases where key information is exchanged by means other than the 
JWS and JWE headers ARE NOT important.

Maybe people could reply with 1 and 2 as above, so that their answers to the 
question of whether these use cases are important are not are unambiguous.

Subject: [jose] Feedback request on jose tracker issue #15: Should at least on 
key indicator be mandatory

Issue #15 http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/jose/trac/ticket/15. suggests requiring 
that a key indicator, such as a "kid" field, be required in all JWS and JWE 
headers. Are use cases where key information is exchanged by means other than 
the JWS or JWE headers important?
Which of these best describes your preferences on this issue?
1.  Yes.
2.   No.
0.  I need more information to decide.

Your reply is requested by Friday, April 19th (or earlier).
