Description

Currently, per site, only one proof appears to be possible. This leaves out millions of users who command not over an entire site, but just a fraction of a site.
Please add the possibility for multiple proofs per site.

Then for example the supreme court of switzerland could add its web-proof.
https://www.privasphere.com/kanzlei@bger.ch

or many other "SuisseID"-identified lawyers.

I guess this idea is somewhat similar to
https://github.com/keybase/keybase-issues/issues/977
Solutions:
1) It would be great if I not only could specify the site, but also a deep link.
2) I guess the URL to accommodate multiple users per site could also be generically be set - e.g.

example.com/keybase?you@domain.tld or
example.com/keybase?io=ralfhauser (my name at keybase.io)
example.com/keybase?fingerprint=B7BE9E337AA09FA58D3A 97182A20188E87826F38

I probably would even list multiple sites in my proof.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the issue's proposed deep-link and query-parameter approaches, along with the related keybase-issues#977 discussion. Clarify the requirements for multiple proofs per site and how a proof identifies a subsite or user; done requires an agreed design and implementation scope.
