Good. While you are at it: Please also add a checkbox to not hide the passphrase in the entry field. Being able to see what one types is very convenient for long passphrases if you are anyway below a sheet while typing > I don't understand this "if". GKR is implementing (a subset of) gpg > agent's protocol. [ Actually it implements what Robert Bihlmeyer's Quintuple-Agent did in 1999. It completely bypasses the design of gpg-agent where the passphrase caching is just an add-on. ] > Also, the GPG Tools people (Mac OS) do something similar to GKR (but > less invasive) so the modifications to the gpg core will help them as Right, the OS X keychain seems to do the same what GKR does or vice versa.
