#15: At least one key indicator should be mandatory


Comment (by michael.jones@microsoft.com):

 In lots of OAuth deployments, the keys used are negotiated out of band and
 known in advance by both parties.  The same is true of many other
 deployment scenarios.  In these cases, any key indicators in the JOSE
 object itself would be redundant.

 We should not change the specifications to mandate including often
 unnecessary information.
