Some comments...
Section 3.2.1: The CipherReference Element
There's a sentence fragment "Transforms is in the xenc namespace because
the sequence of transforms" which is probably a cut-and-paste error because
the xenc namespace reasoning is described in the second paragraph up.
Section 3.4.1: The EncryptedKey Element
Should the CarriedKeyName attribute really be a child element?
Given that it may be often useful to exactly match the content of a ds:KeyName
element ("where whitespace is significant" to quote the XML Signature spec),
should we really use a corresponding attribute given that XML processors
must normalize white space in attributes (see "3.3.3 Attribute-Value Normalization
" of "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml")?
Correct me if I'm missing something.
Section 3.5: The ReferenceList Element
In the schema definition, why not use <choice> rather than <sequence>?
This will allow apps to order the references in the manner that best suits
them and it makes no difference to the XML Encryption spec.
