You note that your biggest takeaway "was how elegant the core watermarking schemes are"—and I agree. I've engaged in R&D surrounding similar schemes for nested data in the past, but the constraints of hiding signal in plaintext present an additional conceptual challenge and it's interesting to see how various implementations meet that challenge.
