It’s somewhat common to sign debug builds of Internet applications, using a self-signing certificate:

Note that the article predates some Xcode support for code signing.  With modern versions of Xcode — Xcode 3.1 and later, I believe — you don’t need to use a Run Script build phase to do the code signing.  Specify the identity in your build settings just like you would to debug your application on the iPhone and Xcode will sign it.

Release builds of applications that listen for connections and applications that use the Keychain really should be signed using a real certificate, to avoid prompting the user to re-authorize on every update to the application.
