As I said the last time you brought this up .... put whatever you like
in the name and e-mail fields, and notify the people you communicate
with of what's there, and the fingerprint of the key. They can then
set up rules in their e-mail client that when they communicate with
you via e-mail address foo that they should use key bar. You're done.

There is no software modification needed to accomplish what you want
to do.
