There are several ways to do it. You could include the command to
change pgp_sign_as in the macro that you use to change your return
address, or you could set it in send-hooks. Depends on which seems
more elegant to you.

No, but you need to have the sign-as included in your pgp_*_command
settings. For example, my pgp_encrypt_sign_command includes:
%?a?-u %a?
What that does is makes sure that my gpg is told to sign with whatever
key I have set as pgp_sign_as.
