How about just --show? It was suggested in an unfriendly manner at
LWN[1], but apart from the unfriendliness, I do think it makes sense.

It does imply that it works for more than just keys, though. I wonder if
that is a bad thing. Wouldn't a command that just shows the contents of
a file without processing it make sense? It could show all that
--import-options show-only shows for keys, or show recipients for
encrypted files, signers for signed files (no verification), etcetera. A
less techy version of --list-only --list-packets.
