I'm looking into shipping these tools for debian for those interested,
but we're not shipping them yet.

I see a couple options:

 * rename them as wks-client and wks-server and ship them in a separate
   "wks" binary package for people who are interested

 * add them into the standard "gnupg" package shipped in /usr/bin

 * add them into the standard "gnupg" package shipped in /usr/lib/gnupg
   (where scdaemon lives)

any preferences?

is there a specific file extension that you want associated with this
mime type?  .wks was used by Microsoft Works for spreadsheets, but maybe
that's far enough in the past that we can ignore it?

I can have the debian package add this to /etc/mailcap automatically if
you think that's a good idea.  Might be a good argument for a separate
wks package if we do that.
