I talked to Jim Gould about this feedback yesterday. We didn't reach a conclusion, so I'm throwing this to the list to see if anyone else cares and might have a preference for a change proposal.
In Section 2.1 there's a description of the "custom" operation and how it uses an attribute named "op", but I can't find anything that describes the possible values for the attribute. Section 2.2 talks about "Who" values, and it describes three different forms that MAY be used. The document says that "the possible set of Who values is up to server policy", and the Schema data type for the value is a length-restricted normalizedString. That all means that there's really no way to determine if a value is an Identifier, a Name, a Role or anything else (if it matters) and there's no way for a client to determine which is being used by a server. There's also no text I can find that explains how the value for this field is set. My concern is that these unspecified bits might make it more difficult for clients and servers to develop interoperable implementations. Does it matter?
