outdated keyring on write lock

Hi,

i found a problem (at least for me) with keyring locking:

1. start two "gpg --edit-key" programs for different keys
2. sign one key per program
3. close first program with "save"
new keyring files are written to disk, including the new signature
4. close second program with "save"
new keyring files are written to disk, but the first signature is lost

So, is there a "read lock" available in gpg? Or a way to reload the keyring 
after the write lock is acquired?

Michael
