But revocation is different from expiration.

If you're worried about a cert being compromised long after expiration and used to back-date a signature, you can show a warning, add a second signature with a local key at time of installation, use a blockchain to prove age, have a timestamping service generate its own signature at time of generation, etc.

Sure, my point was mostly that there are reasonable cases in which one might want to evaluate the signing of an addon after the fact.
