Greg,

The ability to sign with location certs was something requested by our users. This demand is what motivated us to include the feature because I try to be responsive to market demand. What are the benefits? Using any form of signing allows us to block data unless we can verify that it was created by somebody within the healthcare system, whom we trust.
This allows spam and forged data to be easily excised.

Andrew, I remember you telling us once that the HIC had requested that you investigate signing with the location key, which you felt was inappropriate at the time. What do you see the benefits as being? Mainly extra security?
