Again, I don't see where this would be specified, except for the
deprecated v3 keys.

It's not part of the v4 keys, and I can't recall a section which makes
the key exp sig subpacket mandatory.


Anyway, the idea for making it mandatory has less to do with the
immutable vs. mutable question... it's rather based on the idea that we
should IMHO try to strengthen and clarify the whole message format.
E.g. I think we should convert the critical-bit to be a non-critical
bit. e.g. everything is considered critical unless explicitly specified
not to be.


Cheers,
Chris.
