OK, I'm fine with keeping "PKIX X.509" (although elsewhere we just use
X.509).

What about the second part of my comment?

Also, neither X509Chain nor OCSP are defined in the XML Signature spec.
Suggested wording:
"X509Chain and OCSP MUST be defined in the XKMS specifications." and
probably
remove the following sentence, or change it to
"X509CRL is defined in the XML Signature recommendation."

Thanks,
Yassir.
