True. Even though this patch is fixing only one of the two issues, I am tempted to say that we should queue it for now, as it does so without breaking a bigger gain made by the original, i.e. we learn the status of verification in a way the authors of GPG wants us to, while somebody figuires out what the best way is to show the prompt to the console on Windows.
