Despite of mod_gnutls I'm not aware of any software that supports it. I tried to make Mozilla aware of TLS with OpenPGP [1], but (I think) there seems to be no interest and getting support for this into NSS didn't seem "politically" easy. So it's a chicken and egg problem. I wouldn't remove it, because otherwise X.509 is the only means of authentication in TLS (I think everything in the X.509 vs. OpenPGP debate has been said and both have their practical reasons for existence). Perhaps draft-ietf-tls-oob-pubkey is a compromise.
