#2: No key management for MAC

 The current JWS format does not provide real key management (key agreement
 / key wrapping) for MAC-protected objects.  MAC can only be done  directly
 under a pre-shared key.  JWS needs to add key management functions for
 this case.

I tend to agree with this, if only for symmetry reasons.
