Subject: [SPKM] DName canonicalization rules in draft-adamson-rfc2847-bis

The canonicalization rules in draft-adamson-rfc2847-bis-01.txt currently
says

   2.5.1.4  Exported Name Object Form

   -- DirectoryString attribute values of type PrintableString and
      UTF8String are not in hexadecimal format

   -- DirectoryString attribute values of types other than
      PrintableString and UTF8String are output in hexadecimal format

What about IA5String?  I don't think that IA5String has ever been
(ab)used in a controversial fashion, and since it is a subset of
UTF8String, I would prefer to see then NOT hexencoded as well.
