x5c is the most explicit way to describe which private key is the right one. It 
is an alternative to kid which is another reason why  kid must not be mandatory.

Subject: [jose] Feedback request on jose tracker issue #12: Should the x5c 
field be removed from JWE?, ,

Issue #12 http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/jose/trac/ticket/12 suggests removing 
the "x5c" header parameter from JWE, saying that no use case for it has 
emerged.  The same logic may apply to other key specification parameters for 
JWE.


Which of these best describes your preferences on this issue?
1.  Retain the "x5c" header parameter in JWE.
2.  Remove the "x5c" header parameter (and possibly other related key 
specification parameters) from JWE.
3.  Another resolution (please specify in detail).
0.  I need more information to decide.

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