it is.

Nope, it shouldn't!

Nope, it can't (yet).
What mutt does is "PGP/MIME" and that's slightly different from what TB! does
for signing messages.
TB! is (yet) not able to encrypt/sign "PGP/MIME" or decrypt/verify "PGP/MIME".
TB! should _not_ show the signature inline because: you can save the message
as text file without attachement, save the attachment and decrypt/verify by
PGP directly.
Showing the signature inline would it make quite impossible to save the
message correctly. Nevertheless showing the signature inline does not make
_any_ sense as you are not able to do something useful with this signature in
that state, because verifying from within TB! is impossible.
As I not yet received such a message could you answer me one question: offers
TB! the possibility to see the attachment as text (register card below the
message preview pane)? This could be a quite interesting function as it
prevents me from saving the attachment, opening it in my gvim just for
recognizing it 'not interesting text'.
