I'm not so sure about the "not documented at all" part.

http://pythonhosted.org/python-gnupg/#verification

I'm using verify_file() in another project:

but I agree it's not the most convenient API.

Although the VCS for the upstream code is not publicly available, their issue

and I've found them to be pretty good about responding to bugs and feature
requests.
