I like the first more than the 2nd.

I think the <dss:Status> element in the 1st should have a minOccurs="0", so 
it can be omitted when the request fails.

But could we switch the names around? - i.e. use <Status> for whether the 
request succeeded or not, and maybe have a <VerificationResult> for whether 
the signature is valid? (is this a QName, by the way, or something 
else?).  Using <Status> in that way would be more consistent with SAML, 
which we're using as a model in other respects.
