Well who is going to pay for the staff and systems to do the signing?
How much is required for the number of zones in the .edu domain space?
How long does it take? Who holds the keys? What are the methodologies
for requesting a zone signing or resigning?  Do we allow anyone to
login to a webpage to get their zone signed, and what happens when a
university password is used to get xyzzy.edu moved to servers in
middle snorbtzia? Who pays for, writes, and completes the software for
the extra confirmations?

I think that is the surface of questions that need to be answered,
budgeted, staffed, etc before it could be made so.
