Comment (by eranm@…):

 (alternative discussed  out-of-band with colleagues):
 Allow requesting STHs by specification of time range.
 Similar to get-entries, the log  would return a list of STHs issued on
 that time range (capped by an amount chosen by the log).

 The problem it solves is the lack of ability to verify that the log did
 not breach the MMD throughout its lifetime: A submission's timestamp is
 available via get-entries, but unless a monitor has observed STHs issued
 by the log around the time an entry was created for it, there's no proof
 that the entry was incorporated within the MMD.
