Is there a way to run refresh-keys WITHOUT honoring preferred keyserver
records?

Every now and then I need to update an entire keyring from one specific
keyserver, and since some of the keys involved has preferred keyserver
records it usually turns into running refresh-keys followed by locating
the un-updated key ID's in the scrollback, and then run recv-keys for
those keys.

Something like "gpg --keyserver company.keyserver --refresh-keys
- --no-preferred-keyserver" would make this procedure much easier.
