Q: 

Possible to use Authenticode to sign/verify proprietary file formats?

Is it possible to use an Authenticode signing certificate to sign and validate proprietary file formats?

Over time I've seen the Authenticode format extended to support VBA. JAR files, and even Open Office files so I'm thinking that it may be extensible to other file formats.
