But you *are* asking that jsmith be allowed to give your consent to a third
party. The only easy way of doing this that I can see is to employ a
special email address only for your interaction with jsmith. jsmith can
then give this to whoever they like. I daresay other kinds of consent
tokens might be useful - but they'd require that the publisher (in this
case) knew what to do with them. That would be the publishers problem.
