Very nice! But it seems counter-intuitive that "keyid-format" still 
overrides this, especially since people have set that manually already.

% gpg --options /dev/null --list-keys 80615870F5BAD690333686D0F2AD85AC1E42B367
pub   dsa2048 2007-12-31 [SC] [expires: 2018-12-31]

How about removing the "keyid-format" option alltogether?
