Hi,
The concept of enveloped signatures have been slammed by the JOSE WG due to a belief that canonicalization issues will be hard.
FWIW, I just write a JSON encoder, decoder and signature utility in one week and I didn't find any problems all.
https://code.google.com/p/openkeystore/source/browse/#svn%2Flibrary%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc%2Forg%2Fwebpki%2Fjson
It seem that I will be able to replace 200,000 lines of Apache code with about 2,000 lines of custom code.
{
"MyLittleSignature":
{
"Version": "http://example.com/signature",
"Now": "2013-08-25T20:31:23+02:00",
"HRT":
{
"RTl": "67",
"YT":
{
"HTL": "656756#",
"INTEGER": -689,
"Fantastic": false
},
"er": "33"
},
"ARR": [],
"BARR":
[{
"HTL": "656756#",
"INTEGER": -689,
"Fantastic": true
},
{
"HTL": "656756#",
"INTEGER": -689,
"Fantastic": false
}],
"ID": "ihqQONXvN5_LnmdAG7YU",
"STRINGS": ["One","Two","Three"],

}
}
}
},

}
}
}
Why bother with this you may wonder? Well I can't imagine converting the previous cool stuff to something yucky like:
{
"message": "eyJ0eXAiOibGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.LmNvbS9pc19yb290Ijp0cnVlfQ.2K27uhbUJU1p1r_wW1gFWFOEjXk"
}
Canonicalization (=removal of whitespace):
"MyLittleSignature":{"Version":"http://example.com/signature","Now":"2013-08-25T20:31:23+02:00","HRT":{"RTl":"67","YT":{"HTL":"656756#","INTEGER":-689,"Fantastic":false},"er":"33"},"ARR":[],"BARR":[{"HTL":"656756#","INTEGER":-689,"Fantastic":true},{"HTL":"656756#","INTEGER":-689,"Fantastic":false}],"ID":"ihqQONXvN5_LnmdAG7YU","STRINGS":["One","Two","Three"],"Intra":78,"EnvelopedSignature":{"SignatureInfo":{"Algorithm":"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#ecdsa-sha256","Reference":{"Name":"ID","Value":"ihqQONXvN5_LnmdAG7YU"},"KeyInfo":{"PublicKey":{"EC":{"NamedCurve":"http://xmlns.webpki.org/sks/algorithm#ec.p256","X":"lNxNvAUEE8t7DSQBft93LVSXxKCiVjhbWWfyg023FCk","Y":"LmTlQxXB3LgZrNLmhOfMaCnDizczC/RfQ6Kx8iNwfFA"}}}}
