DID WG Charter -- Editorial PRs

Hello folks,
I worked with Dan (Burnett), Drummond, and Manu to identify DID WG Charter
issues that, in our opinion, result simply from poor wording choices. The
changes are editorial and _should_ be non-controversial. However, I wanted
to flag these proposed changes to the group so that anyone interested has a
chance to review.

This email will serve as a 1-week notice for review; if you have any
concerns, please respond to the github issue/PR as appropriate, or reply to
this email if github is inconvenient for you to use.

The issues I'm referring to are listed in the table below, and attached as
a csv file.

Thanks,
Kim

Clarify that working set of DID use cases will be used as input to the DID
WG, but they are not meant to be the definitive list. I.e. the WG will
continue to iterate on use cases.
