Review result: Has Nits

The document describes a schema and has appropriately identified the read/write
security concerns arising from it.

One issue that I thing could be usefully spelled out is that the use of
automated tools to decode structures of this type is not merely a programming
convenience. Attempts to parse length delimited objects nested in length
delimited structures using handwritten code is error prone and has led to
introduction of numerous buffer overrun vulnerabilities.
