This is an incredibly important update that Xero needs to make.

This is a great idea.
Something I am really surprised that Xero is not currently doing, it would be fantastic if PDF invoices generated by Xero and sent to customers could be digitally signed using a per customer X.509 certificate/public key.
Business email compromise, simply changing payment details on invoices received, is a very common attack and would be stopped/at least compromised if all Xero invoices were signed.

This will also prevent fraud being committed with invoices generated from Xero. Invoices and banking details can currently be manipulated without any difficulty resulting in payments being made to fraudulent bank accounts
