When was this bug's importance last considered? It was opened in 2008. Digital signing and validation of PDFs, including using multiple timestamps from Time Stamp Authorities, is now commonplace on Windows given support in Acrobat, commercial PDF-producing libraries, etc. The free desktop needs to catch up to be a part of that commercial world. I'd suggest in the six years that this bug has been open the importance has risen to high. Please might it be re-appraised?

I'm receiving more and more digitally signed PDF's and evince already acknowledges them with: Signature Not Verified Digitally signed by <signer> Date: <time stamp> Reason: <reason> Location: <location> but it would be great if Evince would be integrated into the distro's ca-certificate infrastructure to verify these signatures.
