I really hate the idea of "loosing" an unencrypted copy of my GPG

copy
of my GPG key and abusing it :)

This is where you can use something like libgfshare that will split the
file up into multiple parts and requires a certain amount of them to
reconstruct the original. Part of my backup policy is to use libgfshare
to split my primary private key (as my subkeys I'm not worried about as
they can be revoked and new ones re-issued easily enough along with the
fact I've moved to storing my RSA subkeys on OpenPGP card) and storing
them in different locations and having a few parts held by trusted
individuals but can not be reconstructed and put back together without
parts from both trusted holders and multiple storage locations (both
physical and online).
