Why signTransaction() does not check сonformity of private and public keys? #301

When I try to sign transaction with wrong private key I suppose to get an Error. But instead such transaction is successful. When I looked through the implementation of signTransaction() I've noticed that there are no any validation. I can even sign a transaction without a private key at all.
