Ah yes, Disastry was the first to complain about it ;-)

Why? You are probably after v3 keys - but OpenPGP does not allow
this.
If someone really wants sign and encrypt keys, he can use the batch
creation mode, where he has to specify the keyflags explicit (see
checks/genkey1024.test). Normal users don't want this.
