As said please let's not spend too much time on arguing over switch
names, if you really really want -nocert, just push a patch to the
signatureHandling branch that switches to it.

  verify digital signatures

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  This is a feature request to verify digital signatures.  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.
