Why is this option/action offered to the user at all?
seems useles and dangerous
>From gpg man page:
--export-secret-keys
--export-secret-subkeys
Same as --export, but exports the secret keys instead. This
is normally not very useful and a security
risk. The second form of the command has the special property to
render the secret part of the primary key
useless; this is a GNU extension to OpenPGP and other
implementations can not be expected to successfully
import such a key. See the option --simple-sk-checksum if you
want to import such an exported key with an
older OpenPGP implementation.
