That's quite unfortunate to hear, and I don't share this opinion (even
if this doesn't count in this case, I guess), for reasons outlined in
the initial mail by dkg of this bug report in the "fixing enigmail"
section.

As of now, enigmail, which people use to secure their communication, is
broken, therefore, IMHO, fixing it would be indeed a security fix.

I spoke to quite some "end users" during the last weeks about this and
heard the problems they've run into; personally, to not further delay
this, I would very much appreciate if this could be handled via
security.d.o.

Thanks for listening and for your work,
as always, highly appreciated,
cheers,
Georg
