There's two approaches here: If just one such self-sig is enough and we
don't verify, that will already prevent accidental upload, though not
active vandalism. If we want to have that too, we'll have to verify
those sigs, and all self-sigs will have to have it.

Personally I think the first part is what's important, and the second is
probably too complex to accomplish easily.

@dkg What were you going for here?
