The problem with these is that Module::Signature fails when it
should warn if the key is not present in the user's keyring.

If this technical issue is solved then regardless of whether or not
signature tests are useless (i think they are, but then again i also
think i have some modules with Test::Distribution that checks
that... so I am a hypocrit ;-) the usability of these tests will be
good enough.

(I'm CCing audrey so that she'll know I'm dissing her module ;-)
