See above, "you'll have an explicit requirement for *all* padding to be zeros

In some ways yeah, but the padding is an annoying wrinkle that requires 
separate functions/special cases to read what is supposed to be just two 
headers in a row. So a self-padding signature header (whatever the exact means) 
would be a nice simplification for the reader. 

Whether dribbles or not etc, I totally agree there needs to be exactly one 
accepted way.
