Note that we're not talking about desirable here -- only about
possible.  My wife believes that software can be licensed with the
restriction being discussed, and that such a license could be
enforcable without a signature.  However, I believe she's talking
about a softare usage license by the copyright holder (the FSF),
rather than merely a copyright license.
