Are you asking for mml-secure-sign to use:

  Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc"

rather than the current:

   Content-Type: application/pgp-signature

in what it sends out; or for Rmail to default to a filename of
"signature.asc" rather than "noname" for an application/pgp-signature
entity that does not specify a filename?
