There's a pull request for direct GPG support in vault as well, that we
need to evaluate

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/7174

"Luckily, the next major release of Ansible will include the ability for
vault_password_file to point at a script that will be run to get your
passphrase."

FYI - I don't remember merging this one.  If we didn't merge that yet, I'm
not opposed.   Perhaps James did and I didn't notice, but there should be
instructions added in docs to reference how to use it before this is
complete.

It may be a case of comparing the two submissions, can you please comment
on the above pull request?

Thanks!
