I attached a bash script and the associated mutt configuration
to download a key from either the X-Request-PGP or
X-OpenPGP-Key-URL fields in a message header. The script is run
as a macro from mutt, bound to <ctrl>-g. I have not done much
scripting with bash, so feel free to point out any
inefficiencies. Here is the mutt configuration line:

macro pager <esc>g '| requestkey | gpg --import -'\n 'pull a PGP key from t=
he canonical source'

I also added x-request-pgp: and x-openpgp-key-url: to hdr_order
so that mutt shows which canonical key sources are available.
