In the discussion on the call yesterday I raised the question whether the KeySelector element could be used to support XKMS types of DSS servers. I understood that the discussion did not contemplate such a use for KeySelector. Rich' comment and Frederick's, not surprisingly, seem to favor it. I think that we need to flag this for further discussion, if that is the intent.
