I think this is just a misunderstanding — the idea wasn’t to supply the parts under different URIs, but to make up different URIs for retrieving the different combinations coming in one multipart-core, in one transaction.

As in

/skg?sk=284&spk=281

(Where sk is short for “secret key” and spk for “signed public key” — substitute your own names.)

or, say

/skg/284,281

This provides full format agility while preserving the interaction model.
