Yes, I know how to import and export keys. But I was wondering why gpg
does not arrange the keys automatically by ID or by something else. I
think it is bad that in the unfortunate case that someone gets hold of my
keyrings they can see in what order I have imported the keys. It would
also be convenient if you would get a sorted list with --list-keys.
