Agreed. It'd be good to require some type of script signing, too.

Although, at the moment, most people download scripts from non-ssl svn, so even if they aren't signed the risk 
doesn't change.

What sort of mechanism would be used for signing the scripts?

Would there be a central key authority managed by a trusted *someone*?
 Would we use PGP keys?  Would we use MD5 or SHA-256 sums uploaded
somewhere and force manual checksum verification?
