This is a very noble endeavor indeed, I both applaud and respect it.

Having said that, just what level of significance would it take

Unfortunately, I respectfully reject this as a statement of fact.

There's even a provision (NPN) in the draft which offers a
reasonable method designed specifically for offline signatures.
While the NPN documentation is imperfect, we've still seen a lot
of interest it, and with the help of the WG, we feel it could
prove very useful.


Thanks,
John
