Browser vendors exploring HTTP Signature integration

Yet more adoption of the specs we've incubated in this community...

Signatures to further protect and decentralize software libraries used
on web pages. This is being done to mitigate some of the scariest
software supply chain attacks that web pages are susceptible to today:

The approach uses HTTP Message Signatures (incubated in this community
for 8+ years before being standardized at IETF) to digitally sign
software delivered to web pages such that the provenance of the
software can be verified before using it.
