+- `signature': Prompts for an arbitrary string that can be used

+  1a, 1b, 1b1, 1b2, ...).  Signatures have no strictly defined

+  use-case is to implement Niklas Luhmann's Zettelkasten system
+  for a sequence of notes (Folgezettel).  Signatures are not
+  included in a file's front matter and are not shown in the
+  description of a link.  They are reserved solely for creating a
+  sequence in a file listing, at least for the time being.
 
 The prompts occur in the given order.
