You wouldn't want to use this recursively, since chances are that you=20
habe a key from the stongly connected set and that means you will end=20
up with 11,000+ keys after 13 or so rounds of this procedure ;-)

gpg --with-colons --no-expensive-trust-checks --list-sigs | \
  grep 'User id not found' | \
  cut -d: -f5 | sort | uniq | \
  while read KEYID; do
    gpg --recv-keys 0x$KEYID
  done
