Yes! As Austin probably remembers, we've discussed this before. I definitely agree that it makes sense to somehow distinguish "immutable" information that is a fundamental, unchanging/able property of the message, and it might be nice to look ahead to that here. jamie. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJPoIAqAAoJEO00zqvie6q8/I8P/0TgG6JHDJq/pMV/yFSb8ZPS dQZ8qhKPaifkAvt+AGwECoD3/uQfr654IfWlpee5O9gxIr16PtnkBR7G6TlrUn5E PbJigczBI0GedbTtDgnLDboU00CIBvjmUltQKx03kDQBmdf326VhAwb3VNO7JmZu wNgjxfxxvJQi76QwgmA0Qmj87mZ945YBe5neINcamLsnGPu0pgxqpLV/DdX7f4pm 4YZ4R91YYz0L5SrgDzPe9C8Yb2GP6IQRkUmu0OmyQk85IC2kZY3kgk3Ci9CtG6R1 nSg4Dt5U2gSqzKopcFAw2gi/mPqpiZNNToACNz4BLkrpOGHG/m2ETVjFoVRRkDj0 gDwU7kKyfSV3JWU9Pm45l0PsODQc14iasFHbunFQ90OV6pa+cwYAN0H5KV2F0vLk vJsDPppdPW+YrlF27mcJuv3mo/tSZMTbmMbPZfXXsYbeHYFwOLWdTm7szY1Jo+8B 3jgZOk4A+IkxCb5y8QY6FWKzRNndwu80qYKAC82zwc5mlUXXRIoZIlXap+OreR/+ TYsMxn8sBaKrndVzXpW02NSsy882JgQefGmHoCXn3x3rJZWJgf+eliF+IeGCBGp8 L9EE/OoWfExd9bbKc5tgTzKWrWRyjDes4hIYAvGNimxbio5N5M3/e/qihF8vwomc 0tdF8i1mHq7X1OIwlRr4 =mTVS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
