If it is not too much hassle (and it should not be), I would like to generally
like keep supporting this. This is a feature that can be an argument for
Institutional users in Germany to use KMail / Kleopatra because it supports
this. I'm not arguing that Chiasmus is a good thing but it is a requirement
for some users which might be forced to Windows / more proprietary Software if
there are no Free Tools supporting this.
At least in Kleopatra the support should be kept. It's not that much code and
doesn't complicate the code much as the Architecture is built on "Multiple
crypto backends" anyway.
Regards,
Andre
