See https://github.com/WICG/webpackage

That will potentially help browser adoption of webbook, and give you features like signatures that are useful in some contexts like legal documents.

I think the idea of signed packages is for much more than legal documents. Web security is based on the same-origin model, but portable documents don't really have an origin. Signing them might allow them to be trusted, and be part of the web security model.
