Yes, this is a pretty core COSE concept -- as discussed in
draft-ietf-cose-rfc8152bis-struct, COSE message headers include both a
'protected' list of attributes and an 'unprotected' list of attributes, and
those are the attributes in question.

I took these suggestions, thanks.

This is pretty similar to Lars' point, and we had a lot of participation in
the discussion that got us to consensus for this deliverable.  There's a
lot of interest in this space and we wanted to be clear about what we are
(are are not, at least yet) taking on.

I left this alone for now, as it seems to flow better to me as-is.  But
feel free to repeat the remark when it comes back to us and I will think
about it again...

Thanks,

Ben
