It was used in Quanta in KDE3 (that's why I added to it;) ) and I think 
it makes a lot of sense for any "stuff" that can run on your computer, 
like scripts. If you have a GHNS provider site where you publish only 
review scripts that don't do any harm, it makes even more sense to sign 
them with a GPG key the users might trust.

Although Quanta4 porting was stalled, now we have a good progressing SoC 
student for it, so count another app that is interested to have signed 
stuff.
