Do we really need to add this? Wouldn't it be much nicer to just teach people to use one of the existing signature things that we need for _other_ cases anyway, and already have merged? (Of course, it's possible that none of the current crypto supports any signature checking at all - I didn't actually look. In which case my argument is pointless).
