The proposed External Content Attribute Set Announcement could be used to cover this case.
Attribute Set Announcements can be Tombstoned, but not Updated, so the semantics of publishing a new estate plan (3) would be to tombstone the old version and announce a new version.
Is the current DSNP spec sufficient and appropriate for some types of attestations?
If not,
Specific use cases
The use cases are about a need to announce the existence of some type of document or created work as soon as possible after it has been created, to stave off alternate, and/or forged claims. The attestation is simply "this thing exists on or before this ${timestamp}"
In this system, I could also Tombstone an erroneous announcement, and I could conceivably self-announce updates as well, or easily switch to another provider for updates, say if the provider goes out of business.
Updates could be replies.
