how hard would it be to write a patch for an option of 
--try-all-symmetrics
or
--use-symmetric-name
that would ignore the cipher number and try all of them,
or try only the one specified ?

( disclaimer:
*not* a feature request for the gnupg team :-)

only a workaround thought 
for the hackers who choose to enable Camellia now )
