 Huh? I fail to see why "there's a hell lot of documentation out there that
 assumes that files are signed individually" should prevent *enumerating*
 the blockers for moving to a different verification scheme. But it seems
 at least the amount of documentation relying on single keys is one of the
 blockers (which is, btw, kind of a catch-22 situation as we won't get new
 documentation if we are not switching the verification scheme). Good, what
 else?
