Describe the improvement you are suggesting in detail

In Germany there are 3 stages of digital signatures each with different requirements. There is EES (simple electronic signature), FES (advanced electronic signature), QES (qualified electronic signature). Similar requirements exist in US and other countries. It would be great if it could be listed how these requirements are fulfilled and what needs to be considered (for example when selfhosting the solution, a self signed certificate is not sufficient) to make justifications of using documenso over competitors easier

Additional Information & Alternatives (optional)
