Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: seahorse

When a private key is exported, Seahorse 2.22.2 in Hardy doesn't warn
the user about how dangerous this can be if he doesn't take enough care
of his keys.

To reproduce this, double click a private key, go to Details tab and
click on Export. At this point both the public and private keys are
being exported and copied to a clear file, without telling/remembering
the user how important it is that he keeps this file secret.

I think it would be enough to show a popup warning box when the Export
button is clicked.
