The first case in this document is to send a Query on operations and objects supported. According to the new section 4, the response to the operation shall not vary; In particular, and server that supports more than the bare minimum of operations does not, as written, support this profile. I do not think this is intended behaviour. An addition to section 4.2.1 is clearly needed.

Apparently, a server compliant with this profile must, by default, give all new created keys an attribute of Lease Time with a value of 3600, as the Get Attributes is not one of the permitted variations in section 4. That's a remarkably specific behaviour to hide in a test case, and should be documented elsewhere in the profile. Indeed, the Lease Time attribute is not even listed as SHALL support in Section 2.2. If the intent of section 4 is to make use cases normative over the list items in section 2, that is a very dramatic change indeed, and requires further discussion.
