So perhaps the solution is to throw a big warning and prompt when an
integrity check failure is thrown by gnupg? That would mitigate the
current issue, but allow for reading pre-MDC emails as per Werner's
earlier link.

The problem here is that an integrity failure is a serious error when it
occurs in a context where oracle behaviour is possible (such as email),
but it's much less serious when used outside that context. Just because
gnupg says it's only a warning-level offence doesn't mean enigmail
should agree...
