OK, I see what you are saying.
I was under the impression that the actual question was whether to allow PGP
sigs to exceed the 4-line limit on SIG's, and that's what I've been trying
to keep this to.
What I'm saying is this:
If PGP sigs are coded messages, they would seem to be illegal under
FIDO rules.
If not, then they seem to be part of SIGs, and as such, should be
subject to the rules for them.
Did I miss something? If so, I'll re-think.
