## UI Client interface
These data types are defined in the channel between clef and the UI
### SignDataRequest
SignDataRequest contains information about a pending request to sign some data. The data to be signed can be of various types, defined by content-type. Clef has done most of the work in canonicalizing and making sense of the data, and it's up to the UI to presentthe user with the contents of the `message`

SignTxRequest contains information about a pending request to sign a transaction. Aside from the transaction itself, there is also a `call_info`-struct. That struct contains messages of various types, that the user should be informed of.
As in any request, it's important to consider that the `meta` info also contains untrusted data.

SignTransactionResult is used in the call `clef` -> `OnApprovedTx(result)`
This occurs _after_ successfull completion of the entire signing procedure, but right before the signed transaction is passed to the external caller. This method (and data) can be used by the UI to signal to the user that the transaction was signed, but it is primarily useful for ruleset implementations.
This occurs _after_ successful completion of the entire signing procedure, but right before the signed transaction is passed to the external caller. This method (and data) can be used by the UI to signal to the user that the transaction was signed, but it is primarily useful for ruleset implementations.
A ruleset that implements a rate limitation needs to know what transactions are sent out to the external interface. By hooking into this methods, the ruleset can maintain track of that count.
**OBS:** Note that if an attacker can restore your `clef` data to a previous point in time (e.g through a backup), he can reset such windows, even if he is unable to decrypt the content.
