The document currently says:

  The content collection content type is used to transfer one or more
   contents, each identified by a content type.  The syntax accommodates
   contents with varying levels of protection.  For example, a content
   collection could include CMS protection content types as well as
   unprotected content types.  A content collection is expected to be
   encapsulated in one or more CMS protecting content types, but this is
   not required by this specification.

This strikes me as something that might need to be
called out again in the Security considerations section, as implementations
may be expecting a single level of protection for non-MIME multipart contents.
