             can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the
             definition of the extension.

  Base StructureDefinition for Signature Type: A signature along with supporting context.
   The signature may be a digital signature that is cryptographic in nature, or some other
   signature acceptable to the domain. This other signature may be as simple as a graphical
   image representing a hand-written signature, or a signature ceremony Different signature
   approaches have different utilities.

      The elements of the Signature Resource are for ease of access of these elements. For digital
       signatures (Xml DigSig, JWS), the non-repudiation proof comes from the Signature  validation,
       which includes validation of the referenced objects (e.g. Resources) (a.k.a., Content)
       in the XML-Signature Detached form.
