Sourcing a signed boot script

Hi,

I would like to ask if it is possible to source a script after
verifying its signature.

Currently I've been able to source a script from a signed FIT image,
before doing "bootm", with:
source <addr>:<name>
But this way the signature is not checked yet, so the script cannot be trusted.

According to the docs[1] it seems that it's not possible yet to verify
a FIT image signature without also booting the corresponding image. Is
that right?

Thank you,
