As far as I can tell, all wavelet updates
(ProtocolAppliedWaveletDelta) are signed by the federation host and
not by the federation remote or the actual client.
And, since the delta may be transformed prior to application, any
client signature of the original delta would not be valid if included
the wavelet update.

This means that participants have no way of verifying that the
federation host applied other participants deltas properly.
If the federation host maintained both the original and transformed
deltas, and made them available via history then remote hosts (and
their clients) could verify the hosts transformations.
If the original delta's included both the host/remote signature and
possible a client signature, then complete verification is possible.

Have I misunderstood how OT works? Are there plans to extend
verification beyond the federation host?
