Hi Dave,

If a preparse routine handles all the above, then if any of the
above failures occur, the key service has less backing out to do.
Is that the point?

How do I make the connection between the preparse and the instantiate? 
Do I just put what I need to remember about this key request in the
payload.data during preparse, so I can examine it again during
instantiate?

Thanks,
Alison
