Is there a reason for xmlsec not providing access to this information?

It would seem to me to be a fundamental feature of signatures - anyone 
checking a signature needs to know both a) that the signature is valid 
and the document hasn't been modified since signing; and b) who signed 
the file.

How do other people reading this mail deal with this issue?

Thanks,

Dave.
