Question:

Does this specification allow for signature/certification keys without
user ID and self-certification? 

Yes, it is allowed.

   I am a bit confused with the wording.
Please indicate in your answer which section allows (or prohibits) such
keys. Maybe, we could make it more explicit?

Section 2 allows it through the definition of the "Augmented v4 device
certificate".  Wording suggestions to make it more clear are welcome.  I
suppose your confusion is my use of the word "can" throughout that
section?

Regards,

Daniel
