Just to get the ball rolling then, if OAuth were to adopt magic
signatures for its requests, then I think the ramifications would be:

1. Payload would need to be embedded in the data element of the
signature, so we'd be duplicating payload to support digital signatures.

2. Some standardization of signer identifier (in the decoded data
element) would need to be selected.

3. Presumably we would not be using LRDD/XRD to discover the public key
of the signer, but rather use the key that server issues to client?
