If the address is directly passed to gpgme "local" should be utf8 as
this is how gpgme or OpenPGP define user ids and thus mail addresses.

Thank you, Werner. What about when invoking gpg directly (i.e., mutt in classic mode)? Does the command line gpg translate user ids from the system locale to utf8 for international domains?

Also, --with-colons output is always in utf-8.

Replying to myself, after RTFM :-). There is an option --utf8-strings, default off, that controls whether command line arguments are interpreted as utf-8 or in the native locale (or, as specified by --display-charset). I'll have to look through the classic mode code to see whether it's dealing with this properly. But I don't recall any iconv code in there, so looks like more work to be done.
