1) What is the reason to encapsulate clear-text PEM body parts in an entity of type message/pem-clear, instead of including the body part unencapsulated (e.g. as text/plain, but potentially any MIME type)? The latter would provide better interoperation with MIME-capable UAs that are not PEM-capable (MIME does not mandate any particular treatment for unrecognized subtypes of message).
I have not read the I-D closely yet but on a first impression, I have the same question. -Ray
