Methods 2 and 3 are not about application functionality migration.  In both of these cases, the application doesn't work if it doesn't support the extension, so there's no migration path enabled by them.  They're there strictly to describe how to ensure that JWSs that would be misunderstood by recipients not implementing the extension are cleanly rejected by those implementations, rather being processed with incorrect payloads.  I'll look into adding text to that effect in the draft.

Barry made the same observation. :-)  Will do.
