Great idea: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Signing

I've attempted to summarise the discussion so far. I've also added a
couple of notes about potential improvements to the proposed
django.utils.signed API, in particular a note that having low-level
support for signatures that have a timestamp baked in and hence can
expire might be a good idea.
