Mark, I note that your current ED ( https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webcrypto-keydiscovery/raw-file/9dd3763a0333/Overview.html ) makes this statement for the "getKeyByName" method ( https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webcrypto-keydiscovery/raw-file/9dd3763a0333/Overview.html#methods ) "A name specifier matches the name of a key if they are identical when expressed as a string of unicode characters." Several thoughts: 1) It seems you should include a normative reference to "convert a DOMString to a sequence of Unicode characters" if you're going to state the comparison as unicode codepoints (See http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/WebIDL/#dfn-obtain-unicode ) 2) Your specification leaves the comparison as ambiguous when dealing with the Unicode equivalence - are they canonically equivalent, compatible, etc. It seems you should normatively reference one of the appropriate DOM terminologies for string comparison ( https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/domcore/raw-file/tip/Overview.html#strings / http://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#strings ). I presume you wish a case-sensitive match. Cheers
