Stewart,
I fully agree with you that using PW labels from a  label space that is not a per-platform one requires an explicit update to RFC 4447.
My comment on this point has been triggered by your saying that you *think* that RFC 4447 explicitly requires per-platform label space.
Just wanted to clarify that this is indeed the case.

Regards,
       Sasha
