It'd be nice to move away from signatures on packages, towards 
certificates which are signed and contain a cryptographic sum and a data 
blob.  That would allow for multiple signatures that specify their 
purpose directly, rather than inferring multiple purposes from a 
signature that merely specifies that the contents haven't changed.
