Description

According to https://wicg.github.io/webpackage/draft-yasskin-http-origin-signed-responses.html#signature-header, each parameterised identifier MUST have parameters 'sig', 'integirty', and so on. Then is it okay for them to contain other parameters not referred as 'necessary' in the spec?
