Not really. Just a simple, if route invalidly signed, drop it. If route 
validly signed, prefer it over unsigned. That allows people to choose to 
protect their routes, while the vast majority of routes don't need 
protecting. I haven't seen the proper mechanism, though it may exist, to 
say (hey, I already have a route which while not as specific was signed, 
so bye bye).
