I agree that example data would be highly desirable.  However, I do not
think that we should keep progression to proposed standard.  This can more
easily be accomodated when we progress to draft standard.

One minor request, would it be possible to include a short example of data
wrapped up with each CMS content-type at the end of the draft (data,
encryptedData, etc)?  This would help solve some of the "we thought you were
supposed to interpret the text this way" problems which have come up, and
provide useful test vectors for implementors.
