thanks, this makes sense to me.

this is interesting: under your proposed changes, the "signs" element
would not need to be a list any more. it could just be a single part ID.
 I think i like that.

"sigstatus" would still need to be a list, though, since you can have a
signature part that contains multiple signature packets.

Thanks for helping think this through, David.
