It seems like I have forgotten to deal with the said case and any invalid base58 string will cause a panic. For example here:

pub fn from_base58_string<S: Into<String>>(val: S) -> Result<Self, SignatureError> {
let bytes = bs58::decode(val.into())
.into_vec()
.expect("TODO: deal with this failure case");
Self::from_bytes(&bytes)

This should definitely be dealt with before another release!

If this is a quick one, let's do it in 0.9, if not let's push it forward into 0.10 - I think we know we have lots of these, but I'd like to get the system working end to end before dealing with them all.
