You can already verify Digital Signatures in the current version of Okular, no?

You can add new Digital Signatures in the version of Okular that will be released next month.

Cheers,

P.S: This is all PDF-file only, not sure adding digital signatures support for formats that don't support them natively would make lots of sense

What I am not sure about is whether there is no interest in working on this feature from the community or is there some kind of limitation to not have it yet implemented. If this feature is possible to be implemented, I would like to spend my summers working on it.
