not require the LS referenced by a URI to have a default-deny policy.
The default policy that seems to be implied by both protocols seems to
be "open until X", where X is a value specified in an expiry attribute.
(In effect, they do what you propose, but with an expiry timer instead
of a URI.) I was assuming those documents as the starting point for the
policy-uri document.
