That's clear.=20

I thought I'd make a standalone subkey revocation cert, that could be
printed and deleted.=20

But on the other hand, it's a subkey - so I'd still have the primary and
could revoke a subkey without having its secret part (not tried - but
seems logical, the binding sig is made with the primary, after all). And
if I lost the primary I'd have to revoke the primary, not just the
subkey...=20
