Implicitly approved people (addresses) can be forged.  Easily.

Over on the developer list, I recently suggested using digitally signed
messages as the implicit approval mechanism.  Now, we're pretty much
talking people rather than addresses (throw out the key if one gets
compromised).

The responses were all about various ways to implicitly approve addresses.
No response that I recall seeing discussed digital signatures.

Oh, well.
