DEREncodedKeyValue

While working on the implementation of DEREncodedKeyValue [1], I am curious as 
to why we didn't define (or recommend that) this be a child element of the 
existing KeyValue element? We must have discussed this before but I don't 
remember. It would seem to be a better place for it, as it is intended to hold a 
single public key (same as a KeyValue) and it would fit nicely in the existing 
Java APIs for KeyValue, where the underlying DER encoding does not necessarily 
need to be exposed to the programmer.
