Re: [Ace] WGLC for draft-ietf-ace-oscore-profile

* Section 1 - I understand the reasoning behind having the server send back
a nonce, although it would be good to have a description someplace about why
this is being done.  (I would also make it optional as not all RS need to do
this.)  I do not understand the reasoning behind having the client send a
nonce to the server.

* Section 3.1 - This is more general than the section, but you should not
use the URI path in the text, instead you should be using the name that is
in the authz document.

* Section 3.2 - Does it really make sense to use 'COSE_Key' to transport the
key data?  Would a different field name be better?

* Section 3.2 - Please provide a justification for the requirement that the
ids must be unique over the set of all clients and RS.   I can see that the
client ids need to be unique on a single RS and RS ids need to be unique for
any given client but not the broader statement.

* Please add an explicit section on when a RS and a client should discard
the security context.

* Section 6 - Ok I'll bite  - how does not echoing the nonce allow for a
man-in-the-middle attack given that the salt and shared secret are still
going to be known only to the C and RS and not to the MITM.  I can see a DOS
attack being made, but that can be done even without this just by causing
the response to never be delivered.

* Appendix - I am not sure that I think that the EDHOC profile should be in
this document as oppose to being in it's own document.  The fact that we
have not even tried to get this to work in any of the interop tests means
that I am less sure that it is well baked.
