I'm a little surprised that you dismissed in-toto for this specific
reason. in-toto is being used today to create platform-agnostic
supply-chain attestations for everything, from single files to whole
container images.

I'm not against re-inventing the wheel or having competing ideas, but it
seems to me that avoiding xkcd 927 would be a good idea.
