You could take a cue from S-tools; it uses the cipher you choose as a
prng to reorder the data. S-tools seeds the prng with a password+salt,
but you could encrypt the seed w/ the public key, put it at the start,
recover that with your private key, seed the generator, and extract the
pgp message. That way, there's known plaintext, but you don't know
where to look for it.
