Hi

People sometimes send me openPGP keys pasted into the body of an 
email.

If the email is not signed, or if the sender appended the key block
after signing the rest of the message, the keys import by pressing the
"Import OpenPGP Public Key" button that TB! provides.

If the sender pastes the key into the body and then signs the message 
(PGP inline) it is not possible to import the key without pasting into 
a text editor and removing the extra <dash><space> that is placed at
the beginning of the lines
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
and
-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
when the message is signed.  

When the signature is verified, I would like to see a "PGP Verified" 
tab that showed the contents of the message without the 
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- line and signature block, with the 
<dash><space> escapement removed from the beginning of lines, and with 
an option to honour the cut mark even though it may have lost its 
trailing space when the message was signed.

This would resolve the issue in the message subject and simplify
replying to openPGP signed messages. I know some of the above can be
achieved through use of macros, but it seems a neat solution to the
key importing issue.

I have posted a wishlist item at https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=7919
