Title: Message
I think we should at least consider putting a restriction on the
character set (or, rather, byte range) used for the handle value, as this may
simplify stuff on the Consumer's part, since if the Consumer is stateless
it may decide to store the handle in a URL parameter or a form field, and if
there's a limitation it might not need to encode the state. However, I would
tend to agree with Rich that specifically regarding the handle, it should be
treated as an opaque string, and thus even if it is case-insensitive (it might
very well be so), the Consumer should not be allowed to make this assumption. Is
there anywhere else where case-sensitivity is an issue?
