Describe the issue

Developers must use CometBFT APIs to send a raw IPC/FVM message to Fendermint—e.g., in cases where EVM RPCs cannot interact with an actor. This is more challenging in non-Rust languages which don't have access to extensive Rust IPC-related libraries, like Python or JavaScript, but it also enshrines IPC's dependence on CometBFT. Ideally, Fendermint would expose its own RPC with an ipc_sendNativeMessage method, allowing me to submit a message directly to the execution layer instead of CometBFT.

See original context here.
