Enable scripts to be "signed" or Certified so that authors do not have to TRUST every time.

When a script is developed, any other author access has to validate and trust scripts. Any change to the report will then require another author to re-trust the scripts. WHile the idea is good, having authors review and "trust" by the click of a button is not adding trust but adds frustration.

It should be possible for a script to be built and then locked and "certified" by some script certification signing process that "compiles" or LOCKS it from changes so that it does not prompt other authors in future. If the script is then edited, it will remove the certification

Clicking trust is like clicking "I agree" on the software installs these days...

    Ti, how do you mean you can only trust all or nothing? It is fully possible to trust a single script by clicking Review and then OK in the manage trust and scripts dialog.

    Trusted developer signatures would be a huge win for our deployment workflow as well. Please consider this TIBCO.
