I think there's some perception by people like this that --- there's some massive goal towards restricting users, and each change in the security policy is an incremental step.
But it doesn't really make sense:
- All the technical work to restrict users could certainly be done in one release: it's not that hard.
- As to market acceptance, I don't think any of the changes re: binary signing are "getting users used to" being restricted.
So, requiring signed binaries doesn't appreciably make the technical or market challenges of restricting unapproved apps easier.
