Martin,

Yes, the second signing could be done by a mobile device that I owned and co=
ntrolled (I wasn't thinking that initially).  I was thinking that online ser=
vices are popular because of convenience and there should be a better way to=
 address security (privacy issues not withstanding).

I think these are practical approaches and just doing a sanity check.  Thank=
s for the vote of confidence.

  For example, a user could generate a wallet with 3 keys and require a tran=
saction that has been signed by 2 of those keys.  One key is placed in cold s=
torage and anther sent to a third-party.
