Correct. To make it a bit more clear ... I lsign Bob's key so third parties do not know (normally) that I did this. But how could my friend Alice trust Bob's key she has without my non-exportable lsign sig? What I tried to propose is an additional parameter, like --add-me which would write a 'blob' to a second file.db where I can export then Bob's blob (non-compatible to SKS etc.) with my --lsign sig, and give it to my friend Alice. Later If Alice knows Bob better or personally knows him she can --lsign --add-me Bob's key ('blob') too and give it to her friend Mary. Mary would have then a 'blob" from Bob containing my and Alice's lsigs, which are non-compatible to key servers, but would be IMHO equal to classic WoT sigs. So to speak it is meaned for little WoTs (for those who needs them) where participants don't have to fear that their sigs are published in the future on whatever key servers we have, to not reveal their social graphs.
