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.
