Multiple signing - is this a common desire? (was Re: Signing MS-Excel spread sheets)

[Kiefer, Sascha]

Well, i do not know about files, but our product signs mails using 
multiple-signatures (at least two signatures are required before a mail
leaves the system).
So i think it is NOT a bad feature.

Regards,
Sascha
