So one idea could be to also use the first offset when checking the signature
and in case it is not zero instead of return the status as SIGNATURE_VALID say
something like "SIGNATURE_PARTLY_VALID".

The pdfsig tool already implements support for multiple signatures/"revisions"
but it seems the API does not expose the ByteRange for which the signature
covers nor provides an other way to obtain that revision of the document (?).
