Description
The following public key codecs don't have a private key counterpart:
- ed448-pub
- x448-pub
- mlkem-512-pub
- mlkem-768-pub
- mlkem-1024-pub
- jwk_jcs-pub
I see that the process to add codecs for the -priv versions of these would be to create a PR -- just wondering how to ensure I don't propose codec values that would collide with other PRs?
Thanks!
Apropos: the ed448-pub and x448-pub codecs were added here, but not the corresponding -priv codecs: https://github.com/multiformats/multicodec/pull/190
