Please take a look at the change at
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~weijun/8223053/webrev.00/
I didn't spell out the full "W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing" title because it appears right before the XML block. I had thought about changing the "R" to "r" but seems the capital R is used everywhere even when it's just a noun. For example [1]:
What does "Web standard" mean? What is a "Recommendation"?
W3C publishes documents that define Web technologies. These documents follow a process
designed to promote consensus, fairness, public accountability, and quality. At the end
of this process, W3C publishes Recommendations, which are considered Web standards.
Thanks,
Max

While I added an @implNote saying ECParameters is not supported in this implementation, I understand @implNote is not really a part of the spec and it's not the reason I omit the definition of ECParameters. If you believe it should be included, I'll add it, or add a link.
