Signed packages are useful, but still don't solve the problem. One fairly simple thing you can do to improve this would be to include build scripts as part of the package, and allow people to run those build scripts through wapm. The exact versions of any involved tools will need to be recorded too, but since there arent too many ways to generate wasm blobs yet, this shouldnt be too out there. Eventually it would be great if everyone had fully reproducible build formulae (kinda like https://github.com/polydawn/repeatr).
