I don't. I like to be able to transfer data from my PC to my phone via QR codes; print out QR codes pointing to the latest photo album and and give them to friends; finding QR links on "garage sale" signs (real thing that happened today). Requiring signatures will likely kill those applications.

It's incorrect to assume that the existence of signature validation would kill this use-case. Similar to how the existence of HTTPS does not kill the ability to transmit data over HTTP and visit sites with no certificate or a non-trusted certificate. It could be as simple as a pop-up saying, "this QR code is not validated, continue anyway"?
