Hello TBUDL,

I'd like to see better GPG support in thebat.

For when signing/encrypting, TB seems to call
 gpg --sign --default-key <fromaddr> < <messagetext>

That is bad, and fails if you want to send from an address that is not
in your keyring.

I suggest using a "choose secret key" button in the "OpenPGP
Pass Phrase Input" dialog. TB could also realize before showing that
dialog that there is no secret key for the address and automatically
pop up that dialog - instead of the input box.

I know that some Mailagents may fail to decrypt/verify if the sender's
email address is not in the keyring (probably also true for thebat),
but in that case the user/realname could be checked (with a dialog for
more than one result).

O(pi)nions anyone?
