> Clarify that parsing doesn't check whether any signatures are valid, and that
> loading a manipulated / "updated" PDF will not fail parsing. This applies to
> certification constraints as well. This behavior is not a security flaw, it's
> a missing feature. The ShowSignature example offers a limited signature
> check. The gold standard is Adobe Reader.
