One difficulty with requiring GPG signed emails for patches is that
'quilt mail' doesn't do signed emails. You can have it save the
messages to an mbox file to send manually, but when I've done that, it
requires manual effort to ensure all the email references are correct
so that the quilt patch series shows up as a single email thread.
But in general, it'd be a good thing if ACKs and NACKs were GPG signed.
(I send all messages signed by default, except where things like quilt
prevent me from doing so or where it's known to cause problems for the
receiver.)
