Some comments that still look relevant:

1) The encryption case seems like it would be difficult and delay the
document by a lot. There have been requests to get this done quick, so I
think that should be punted on.

2) Abstract: I don't think the current encryption stuff is fully
specified (the behavior of algorithms does depend on the key), so
statements about new identifiers need to be qualified to only apply to
signatures.

3) Section 3.3.*: For the same reasons as above, the instructions need
to be qualified to only apply to signatures.

4) Section 6.3: I don't think anything in COSE or JOSE currently uses
KEMs. And the requirement for single KDF goes beyond what fully
specified means.

5) I think that all the non-encryption stuff might stand (double-)WGLC.
