hello Aleksey,
It seems a little bit complicated if use your method, because it seems I
need to implement the whole certificate chain checking as well. So for now I
just put this method into my TODO list, and alternatively use some hack
method by inserting <X509Data/> into <KeyInfo/> and delete the node after
verification, it works :)

Thanks a lot,
Weizhong
