These options specify the start node for the signatue and
not the data that needs to be signed. In all cases, it is expected
to be <dsig:Signature/>. If you want to sign different parts of XML
then you need to have different templates. See XML DSig spec for more
details about transforms.

The API calculates the digest of the XML parts specified in the template
in signNode. Please read the spec.
