I did search only via Google as github is practically unusable if
your bandwidth is out and you live with 5-8 Kbyte/sec.
.... :) well ok hm, that gets a bit too involved for me, but the
cms tool uses the PKCS7_*() itself, so we are brothers in failure.

CMS extends and subsumes S/MIME.  If support for ED25519 is to happen,
it has to happen in CMS, and the smime(1) command-line should come along
for the ride, because presumably under the covers support for Ed25519
and Ed448 would happen in PKCS7 as well as CMS.

Or, you could just use cms(1) instead, if smime(1) is left behind.

smime(1) doesn't even support RSA-OAEP, it should be just marked as
abandoned in documentation
