I didn't follow the thread but if your talking about gpg signed html pages a simple browser plugin or access to a "libgnupg" by a browser would be enough. As multiparted MIME messages are already standard in HTTP I can see no problem here. You should propose this to the mozilla guys, it would surely be cool to have (in a browser invisible) signed (but in opposite to SSL/TLS not encrypted and not session dependant) HTML pages like e.g. news tickers or such.
