RE: Last call comment on XML Sig 1.1 schema

Hi Scott,
Actually I would like for us not to change the schema here; the reason is that for the other usages of CryptoBinary related to ECC that you mention, the underlying value is just a simple type: An octet string or a seed value, etc. Here, we have an in-built structure and having an abstraction makes sense.
Best,
-- Magnus
