Details

Steps to reproduce:

I discovered Enigmail plugin is not maintained/supported anymore since TB has builtin sign/cypher emails.
GnuPG says "Especially authors of MUAs should consider using GPGME. "

Actual results:

Let me use GnuPG as a full alternative (cyphering too), at least on linux builds.

Expected results:

I guess there were discussions and then a decision was made. So please, to make my sadness easier to endure, let me know where I can read technical stuff and debates about it.
Best regards all glorious devs.
