Sure, that's how almost all package managers work. I can't think of a modern package manager from an "enterprise" distribution that didn't have a lot of the features of TUF[+].

And as I said, only official-library Docker images are signed. All other images are unsigned and even for third-party repos you can't force Docker to verify all images from a given repo (you have to enable it globally, which breaks the utility of a local "docker build").

[+] Arch is the only counterexample I can think of and I'm not even sure if my memory is correct.
