I second this. Perhaps you could have separate settings for recipes
in /F/C/LocalRecipes, so that Compile could try to sign things
compiled from recipes you wrote, but not from recipes already in the
store?
Signing packages is useful beyond redistribution. It allows you to
check you systems integrity similar to aide or tripwire. I'd prefer
keeping things simple with a setting in Compile.conf rather than
separating local and normal recipes.
