I was pondering with the idea to use the WoT or an existsing OpenPGP key
for fingerprint checking.
I'd personally prefer having a real OpenPGP plugin for gpg,...
Wouldn't that be the real solution?

Hi,
I am new to gpg command line utility for file encryption/decryption. I have
installed gpg4win v 2.0.2 trying to encrypt a file with a key that I
imported which is also listing while typing list-keys command
The issue is that I am getting encryption failed no public key while typing

Alrighty. But doesn't this compromise the layer of security offered by
the passphrase? What's the point having a passphrase at all, if it's so
easy to compromise a private key?
You might as well ask, what's the point of OpenPGP at all, if it's so easy to

Not really. OTR uses DHKEA for symmetric key negotiation. This is an
interactive protocol: you send some information, the other person sends some
information

OpenPGP assumes the endpoints of the communication are secure.
If they're not, there's nothing OpenPGP can do to help you make it
