Would it be possible (and not too controversial) describing why
RFC8037 didn't overload the JWK "EC" specification?  The reason
for asking is because the Java camp intends reusing the EC classes
making "OKP" a JOSE-only concept.  Personally, I believe OKP is just
fine (=clean) and should be adopted not only by Java, but by PKCS #11
and .NET as well.
