A significant item of note: this draft attempts to use "alg":"none" in order to separate the keys from the content, and rely on an exchange of keys outside of the JOSE containers.

I opted not to use "draft-jones-json-web-encryption-json-serialization" because the duplication of headers, with rather minor variances between them, felt overly cumbersome; lots of decoding and parsing to find the right header/key/int combo.  I also have a key distribution problem that I felt the serialization draft makes worse for me.

If there were a good way to separate "properties of the content encryption" from "properties of key encryption", that might make it more palatable.  It wouldn't completely solve my key distribution problem, but I think it would might help.
