Personally I think CFJ 1307 was wrongly decided. It hinges on the M-W dictionary using only "explicitly" in the definition of "specify" where the OED uses "definitely or explicitly"; IMO "all of my assets" is definite if not explicit. And I see this as an excellent reason for the banks to require better language in transaction requests. Preferably in a machine-parsable format.
