As Jon said it is not required for the signing as such.

But both PKIX and OpenPGP keys can be signed and users might have a 
security policy to verify the keys used for signing.
To encourage this in verification tools we could suggest a key 
verification in Section 7 (Efficient Verification of Logs) or Section 
8.9 (Man In The Middle Attacks).
