draft-ietf-openpgp-mime-02 has no new _features_.  It just adds some
restrictions to cope with the incompatibilities introduced by
OpenPGP.  To the best of my knowledge, most implementations seem to
work that way anyways.

draft-ietf-openpgp-multsig-01 is the one which defines a new
feature.  I'm not aware of a complete implementation of this one.
The reading end side of the draft is done in mutt, however.
