I'm not following you, Scott.  In draft-02, I'm assuming that the
presenter is the subject.  This covers Nate's profile and the
nonbrowser use case I have in mind.  Can you give an example of a use
case that does not involve the subject but still utilizes
holder-of-key?  Are you referring to the delegation issue that Eve
raised earlier?
