But as Christer has said, if it's in the OpenBSD base, that should

Just because it's in base doesn't mean that it's the "best" choice.
After all, it *could* just mean that noone has had the time and/or
energy to replace it with something "better" in base. I think few
would argue that all things in base are perfect, and that there is
no room for improvement.
Hmmm. Sendmail was in base and is still in the system, but was replace
as the default MTA by smtpd a few release ago. So, I sure don't thin you
will see smtpd being replace again by something else in base. It was
already done. Check the archive.
It was announced and done in 4.6

New tools:
* Added smtpd(8), a new privilege-separated SMTP daemon.
Are you saying you want the replacement in place now to be replace
again!?!?!?...
