hi norman,
 had a look at the digital signature stuff in CVS. most of the basic features 
are covered. one thing i noticed is getting a keystore from external 
context.getResourceAsStream. This is good enough for certificates lying  in the 
keystore and keystore itself present under externalcontext path.
 
The improvements around this could be to accept the private key as input. The 
private key can be obtained from browser keystore using an applet and passed to 
UISignature. So that the document would be signed by a real certificate lying 
on the browser.

i am not sure about the feasibility of this.. just a thought for improvement

i can think of one possible use case. A user input page for the user to enter 
some text which will be converted to pdf and will be signed by his certificate 
lying in the browser keystore. 

thanks.
