It would be useful for the JOSE working group if there could be a decision
about what attributes need to be defined in the JWK document for
import/export of keys before the F2F meeting next week.

If we are just going to define them in the W3C document it is not an issue
and we can take care of that when this document goes final.

As of now, I am assuming that two possible attributes are needed:

Extractable - which takes a true/false value
Name - which takes a string value and allows for a key to be named in the
event it is to be saved.  (Currently not clear to me if keys are named at
the time of import or at the time they would be saved into the database).
