What does seahorse provide?

e.g. configuration, key handling, etc gui?

If we dont need it to perform signing/verification etc then it might be
a possibility, or if there's some detatched, thread-safe, helper-api to
do the work, etc.  (tho that part of the code is quite small).

If it just configures pgp, then perhaps it could just be a crapplet or
configuration pane, more or less separate from the existing code.
