The whole payload is signed - the whole plaintext is encrypted.

Subject: [jose] Can we do partial encryption/signing of the message payload...?

Going through the JWS specification I found that we can sign different parts of 
the JWS header... and kept some unsigned..

Going through the JWE specification I found that we can encrypt the content 
encryption key for different recipients using different keys...

Something not clear to me is.. can we sign/encrypt just parts of the JSON 
payload ? (this is analogous to the partial encryption/signature in 
WS-Security)...

Appreciate a lot your thoughts...


Thanks & Regards,
