We had a number of users ask for these until we pointed out the User Cards.

Signatures are pretty disruptive to the overall process of reading and participating in forums, so I was really glad that profile cards sufficed for our group.

As @sam once put it:

Plugin seems like the right place for this, I would be quite disheartened if core development time was spent on something like Signatures.
