In the real world, there are important forms requiring attestation whose most direct representation in FHIR would the Questionnaire/QuestionnaireResponse model. A good example of this is the Provider Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) form, which could easily be represented as a Questionnaire supported by a series of ServiceRequest resources.

Suggest adding attester (see Composition.attester) to QuestionnaireResponse to allow responses to be attested to.
