WRT "job-print-password", what if (and I haven't thought this completely through yet) we define another parallel attribute, "job-password-action (type2 keyword)" that defines the semantics of the "job-password" attribute, with the default being "hold-job" to preserve the 1.0 semantics.

OK, more questions:
1. Should "job-password-action" be an operation attribute, or a Job Template attribute?
2. We would want the semantic to be that if the "job-password-action" was 'retain-only' or 'process-and-retain' then the "job-password" value would become a "hidden Job Status attribute" so that the Printer would require the "job-password" to be entered before any reprints could occur.
3. I'm not clear on the semantic meaning of 'process-and-retain'?
