I wouldn't say so. See the entries #139 and #1038 in the upstream bug
tracker (especially the last). If you provide a patch, which enables
handling of several keyservers and which doesn't break existing scripts,
I guess you have good chances that it will be accepted upstream, as this
is a frequently requested feature.

But you'll have several design decisions to make: For receiving or
searching keys, it might be useful to cycle through all specified
keyservers. But how to act on sending a key? How to act on updating the
keyring? What if the keys provided by the keyservers differ? IMHO this
is not as easy to implement as you think.

I vote for not deviating from upstream. This feature should be discussed
on gnupg-devel or in #1038.

BTW: Can we move the discussion about gnupg-related things completely to
bug 380093?
