Note that signing such distribution files can be handled outside
of the wheel format PEP. It just way to complex and out of scope
for the wheel format itself. Also note that PGP/GPG and the other
signing tools work well on any distribution file. There's really no
need to build these into the format itself.

And even if the desire is to include the signature in the distribution
(as is common for code-signing - you want the signature in the executable, the jar file, etc), then it's still possible to include,
say, a PGP signature inside the file, which may well be a signature
to the manuscript, preserving the rest of the signing procedure.
