> The JWS Unencoded Payload Option specification is now RFC 7797
> <http://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7797> – an IETF standard.  The
> abstract describes the specification as:
>
>
>
> JSON Web Signature (JWS) represents the payload of a JWS as a
> base64url-encoded value and uses this value in the JWS Signature
> computation. While this enables arbitrary payloads to be integrity
> protected, some have described use cases in which the base64url encoding is
> unnecessary and/or an impediment to adoption, especially when the payload
> is large and/or detached. This specification defines a means of
> accommodating these use cases by defining an option to change the JWS
> Signing Input computation to not base64url-encode the payload. This option
> is intended to broaden the set of use cases for which the use of JWS is a
> good fit.
>
>
>
> This specification updates RFC 7519 by stating that JSON Web Tokens (JWTs)
> MUST NOT use the unencoded payload option defined by this specification.
>
>
>
> This option is used by including the header parameters "b64":false and
> "crit":["b64"].  JWTs never use this option.
