There's a lot of churn between -04 and -05.  (Sorry!)  I moved a bunch of 
content around to try and improve the organization and make things flow 
better, so lots of things got moved and consolidated and reworked to 
transition through each other, but I think that the document has more of a 
flow to it, now.

I also changed the token format: now there are separate PrAuthName<>s in 
the token for the user identity and the identity to be used for callbacks 
created from connections using this token (user_tok and cb_tok, 
respectively).  This ends up making for a pretty clear division of what's 
used for what, actually.

I made a bit more explicit where we are specifying bits that the core rxgk 
document left as "application-specific", and I copied the editorial note 
about the RFC 4402 PRF+ function's counter.

Since a lot of the text has changed, it would be nice to get fresh eyes on 
this one.
