PaceSecurityServices

For the following reasons:

1. The Pace is rather vauge. 
    Is there a definitive list of security services could be placed in
such an element?
    If there are more than one such security service how is priority set?
    Does 'security' applied to an atom:feed imply the same security
for all the entries?
2. Encryption and possibly signatures require XML to be canonicalized,
    which is not only a burden but is not mentioned anywhere in the Pace.
3. Because of the complexity of producing and consuming such a feed
    I do not believe this functionality belongs in the core of Atom.

   Thanks,
