Comment(by strk):

 Indeed, we should.
 I know it may open a can of worms, but yes, we should.
 Ideally the option "policy" would be extensible to specify as many
 policies as possible.
 One of these could be "topology_preserving", for example, which could also
 mean one day getting rid of the other signature.

 Are you feeling you'd want to dig into it ?
