Russ,

I would prefer to see Section 6.3, paragraph 1, as follows:
 
    The content-encryption key for the desired content-encryption
    algorithm is randomly generated.  The data to be protected 
    is padded as described below, then the padded data is encrypted
    using the content-encryption key.  The encryption operation maps an
    arbitrary string of octets (the data) to another string of octets
    (the ciphertext) under control of a content-encryption key.  The
    encrypted data is included in the envelopedData encryptedContentInfo
    encryptedContent OCTET STRING.
