This is indeed pretty simple, but the implementation is too hackish. There
is much more happening inside IMP to create a valid mime part than what
you have implemented in javascript.

If we really need to sign the complete mime part, we need to implement
this differently. We could submit the form using a different actionID, one
that completes all steps of the send_message action but doesn't send the
message finally. Instead we would return to the compose view with the
complete mime part, trigger the javascript to sign the part, and submit it
again, this time with yet another actionID the runs the second half of the
send_message action, but with the signed mime part.
