  What's wrong with saying if you want to encrypt an attribute, encrypt the element
  that contains it?  I'm still waiting for a good example why the additional application complexity
  of selective encryption of attributes inside elements is needed; ie, I await an explicit
  response to the questions and response on this topic
   posed in Blair Dillaway's most recent message to this list.
