I would expect the COSE expressions of JWP (CWP ?)... to support unprotected headers.
Whatever serializations are supported, they should have the same features... if possible. If the JWP compact serialization supports unprotected headers / multiple recipients (probably not a thing for JWP, but is a thing for JWE), then I don't see a lot of value in specifying a JSON serialization as well. JSON serializations might be better stored in databases, since the base64 encoded components can often be stored as binary instead of text... but CBOR would be even better. That said, it would be nice to have only a single serialization for "JSON", and single serialization for CBOR, and not 2 for JSON and 1 for CBOR.
