[jose] order of step for encryption. JWE section 5

[<[e-mail]>]

Hi,

I have two issues with section 5 of
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-encryption-05.html

1)
I would prefer it if the order of the steps 1 and 2 were reversed in section 5.

Currently we have:
Message Encryption


   The message encryption process is as follows.  The order of the steps
   is not significant in cases where there are no dependencies between
   the inputs and outputs of the steps.

   1.   When key agreement is employed, use the key agreement algorithm
        to compute the value of the agreed upon key.  When key agreement
        without key wrapping is employed, let the Content Master Key
        (CMK) be the agreed upon key.  When key agreement with key
        wrapping is employed, the agreed upon key will be used to wrap
        the CMK.

   2.   When key wrapping, key encryption, or key agreement with key
        wrapping are employed, generate a random Content Master Key
        (CMK).  See RFC 4086 [RFC4086] for considerations on generating
        random values.  The CMK MUST have a length equal to that of the
        larger of the required encryption and integrity keys.

Step 1 refers to the CMK that might be randomly created in step 2. I
think it is better to have the CMK generation
.

2) I find the text of the current step 1 confusing.
 2a) The first sentence is nearly a tautology
 2b) All sentences begin with When but the sentences two and three are
alternative choices and the first is not.
 2c) Does "When key agreement without key wrapping is employed, let
the Content Master Key
        (CMK) be the agreed upon key." make sense?
       What is the key agreement good for then?
       Should this read: "When key agreement without key wrapping is
employed, let the agreed upon key be the CMK" ? There SHOULD be some
randomness e.g. through the epk.

Could we structure these steps more? I) determine the CEK, generate
random values like IVs and epks II) build the jweHeaderSegment (e.g.
put the IV there) III) build the jweKeySegment (e.g. key wrapping) IV)
build the jweCryptoSegment V) build the jweIntegritySegment VI)
base64url encode and concatenate the segments
