I prefer to deal in the Reference Model with the documentation and archiving aspects. Any Composition needs to be signed, irrespective of the content. And that signing on occasion is by multiple persons, in different roles.
When specific parts of the data as defined by the Composition need to be signed-oof, than that is a different matter. And signing off the Composition as artefact (Archetype) is a different matter again.
