Example should chang, I think, to
SHA-1 ( ZZ01Example:Block/Algfoo80 )
and the text above it should refer back to the EncryptionMethod
example above, NOT the AgreementMethod example. This makes the
numeric example be
SHA-1 ( 0xDEADBEEF30314578616D706C652F416C67666f6f3830 )
I'll try doing this and getting the output value later today.

Yes.

Suggest:
"A one byte counter starting and one can incrementing by one. It
is expressed as two hex digits where letters A through F are in
upper case."

Sorry, typo.

You have to know what it is, same as you have to know the Originator
or Recipient info if they are not specified.

I don't think the added complexity is worth it.
