[Fiona] grammar nit - ....the driver should set the crypto op.....

[Fiona] grammar nit - no need for transform and xform - one will do.

[Fiona] grammar nit - same comment as above

[Fiona] grammar nit - "The number needs..." or "This number should be"

[Fiona] grammar nit - octet-string - no need for capitalisation
