AW: KeyName white space

Merlin,

> Agreed. DNames already have this property (from RFC 2253 I think),
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What do you mean? Currently XML-Signature does not say anything about
stripping the white space, nor is there a requirement in RFC 2253 to
be tolerant regarding whitespace at the beginning or at the end of a
DName string.

We currently make a trim() prior to parsing the DName string in our
implementation, but I would like to see an appropriate sentence in 
XML-Signature.

Liebe Gruesse/Regards,
