Indeed, we have to assume that the MUAs are broken in this respect.
See Daniel Gillmor's posts on the problems MUAs have with indicating
which parts of a message are signed MIME parts in the "testing MUAs"
thread.

The basic state of the art seems to be that MUAs can't handle anything
safely except a signature that applies to the whole message.
