It's best to ask the key owner first.  Some folks seem uneasy about
anyone besides themselves uploading their key.  I think that they are
afraid of "guilt-by-association."

On the other hand since I can't think of a way to stop anyone from
signing my key "maliciously", I don't think that someone signing my
key can prove anything detrimental to me.
