Good comment.  I would probably rather leave the MUST but qualify it
with something like "If using the default symmetric recursive
routing..."

RE - qualifying a MUST is a SHOULD according to the IETF terminology

Should always learn the source of the request through the message
signature (5.2.4).

RE - The identity type is not always the node-id according to 5.2.4 it can be 
the certificate
"
identity
      The identity or certificate used to form the signature

   signature_value

   The value of the signature

   A number of possible identity formats are permitted.  The current
   possibilities are:  a Node-ID, a user name, and a certificate.

   For signatures over messages the input to the signature is computed
   over:

      overlay + transaction_id + MessageContents + SignerIdentity 

   Where overlay and transaction_id come from the forwarding header and
   + indicates concatenation.
