Signers (rebranded as app keys) are extremely powerful, but I think they are becoming a disaster waiting to happen. Users are not aware how to manage them, and even if they were, there are no reliable tools to do so. 

Does anyone else share the same concerns? If so, what can we do to improve them?

It’s also not intuitive that all messages get invalidated once a signer is deleted. Like you mentioned as well, easily rebroadcasting messages from an invalidated signer will not be possible with the rate limits introduced by snapchain right?

Strong ordering could help with automatic signer expiry and invalidating signers (all messages after invalidation snap are invalid)

Moving signers off chain onto hubs would also help with being able to iterate on this more easily
