It was suggested by Werner to do key selection in Emacs, like GPGME. I don't know whether GPGME changed the logic though. >> Modern versions of GnuPG also provide a "tofu" mechanism to store and >> track that kind of decision in.

I'm afraid I wouldn't do any work toward tofu at this level of quality; in particular, until they reach the consensus whether tofu is only activated when encryption is triggered by an email address.
