I' assuming it isn't. Do you think it's a good idea? I know, it could lag your mail browsing a lot, but it could be a toggable feature. It would be even better if it let you have a list of keyservers it should look for keys on, not just two.

Try switching to GnuPG 1.4.3rc1.  The much improved Keyserver 'fetch'
Help is a vast improvement.
