Sean:

For #4 ZLIB compression algorithm from RFC1950/1951 is a MUST in the RFC3274 do we need to say it again here?

Yes. The decision of the S/MIME WG more than a year ago was to put all of the mandatory to implement algorithms in this document. In this case, we need to say:

     If an implementation chooses to support compression, then
     the implementation MUST support the ZLIB compression
     algorithm.
