It may get too heavy to not mirror the security update packages.

Why don't we put signature verification into apt and dpkg and mirror everything ?

And perhaps have a tool that checks a bunch of known mirrors for discrepencies in the keyring packages ?

And have a single URL, location aware, load balancing server ? :)

(I know we've been through this before. I just had a brainwave and wanted to see if anyone was interested in doing the above. Sorry for the lack of realism, but not for the extra zeal)

This way the authenticity of security packages can be better controlled.
