The proposed patch series explicitly relies on emacs's epg to make the
actual signature.  epg is an emacs library to use GPG.  So i think what
you're asking for is already being done in this series.

For background: GPG typically does not handle e-mails directly.  Rather,
the mail user agent (MUA) needs to figure out how to modify the pending
e-mail message to be able to feed it into GPG as a text or binary
document to make an OpenPGP signature; then the MUA has to restructure
the message again to ship both the substance and the signature into a
single e-mail message.
