These are great news!
We can retire the webrsync.
Why not sign it similar to the portage snapshot are signed for now?
The webrsync signature validation is quite simple.

Just a reminder: please note the rollback prevention mechanism in
webrsync, it is not enough to check signature, but also prevent older
snapshot to be used.
