A more user-friendly approach (setting aside current architecture and privacy concerns) would be to fire off a retrieval in the background and to return immediately with seomthing like "unknown key, retrieval attempted…" Even better would be to have some sort of asynchronous callback that happens after the key is effectively retreived, so that whatever user interface displays the response could update when (if) the key comes in. gpg isn't currently constructed to do this kind of asynchronous user interaction, however. --dkg
