That's better for me but I'm still a little uncomfortable with the "by any means." Does this mean the XKMS service has an obligation to keep track of revocation lists at all times, and if it notes a revocation on a previously valid keybinding update the client? The way I thought it worked was that a response to a Validate request was a contemporaneous statement about the status at *that* time. If a CR is issued, and I encounter it during a path validation, the next time the request is issued, the status would of course not be the same. But this isn't any special sort of processing...
