> Clarify that parsing doesn't check whether any signatures are verified / 
> 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.
