<no hat>

 

Having just started looking at a design implementation, I am now more than
ever interested in seeing this matrix of fields.  At the present time I
think the following columns are probably of interest:

 

Name, must understand, use required, common vs specific, protection required

 

I was just looking at the alg and enc fields for JWE and realized that one
was specific - so it should be one location - and one was common - so it
should be in a different location.  And then I needed to start thinking
about where it goes in terms of compacted vs one recipient vs two
recipients.

 

Do you have an idea of when this matrix might show up?
