I haven't looked at all the docs/comments, esp in the IdP and schema, so I don't know if any of that disagrees with the technical reality.  Perhaps we should deprecate the 'requireSignedMetadata' and/or 'requireSignature' properties in favor of something more descriptive like 'requireSignedRoot'.

I would say so, that's a very oddly named flag. Can you file a bug on that?

I still think we should pull the flag from the document since we're setting it to the default value in the example anyway, and I don't know that I've ever seen somebody ask about having it off.
