Description tim.miller 2001-12-21 19:49:50 UTC 
It would be nice, when PGP encrypting a message, to be able to select
for yourself the key ID to use.  The public key of the recipient should
be used...but if, for some screwball reason, they have two public keys
(both valid), then the automatic selection causes problems.

Actually, this would be a nice field entry to put into the "contacts"
entry for a person's info as well.

there's no way we can prompt in real-time for the keys to use as gpg
has no interface for it, but we could add a gpg key field in the
addressbook. this is probably th best we can do.
