I’ve proposed a PR to change the key proofing syntax from a string to an object for methods that have additional parameters, like HTTP signatures. 

https://github.com/ietf-wg-gnap/gnap-core-protocol/pull/421 <https://github.com/ietf-wg-gnap/gnap-core-protocol/pull/421>

Details of the change in syntax can be found in the related issue:

https://github.com/ietf-wg-gnap/gnap-core-protocol/issues/417 <https://github.com/ietf-wg-gnap/gnap-core-protocol/issues/417>

Following the pattern used throughout GNAP, if you don’t have additional parameters for a given proof method, you can use the method name string as the full value, which is equivalent to the current syntax.
