Developers letting the "alg" header alone drive JWS / JWE processing is
the most glaring mistake I keep seeing. JOSE library maintainers can
possibly help here, by hiding the "alg" header from developers :)

We took a similar measure with "alg":"none", by giving those JOSE
objects a different class than JWS (for type safety) which cannot be
validated.
