If the accumulation of signatures happens in the DHT, that's fine, but
in that case, did you mean to write that in reply to the 'dht-get'
request that you'd receive "a set of tuples" instead of "a tuple"?

I suppose I'm showing my ignorance of how the GNUnet DHT works.
I apologize for not yet finding the time to study GNUnet properly.
