As the one who raised it, I suppose I should chime in.

My opinion, as expressed on the call, is that it should be MAY in  
both cases.  I don't think we should mandate (MUST) or even recommend  
(SHOULD) the use of identity signals which currently have no  
standardized validation methodology.  I think it's entirely  
appropriate and worthwhile, however, to call logotype support to the  
attention of would-be implementors, should they elect to use it (MAY).

Is this the straw poll Mez wanted?

Cheers,

J
