A smaller change which should "solve" most of these problems could be to
change the error message. If gpg is operating with the short format then a
respective hint could be added:
"gpg is currently operation with short ID format. This prevents short ID
collisions from being easily detected. You may want to run gpg with the option
'--keyid-format long' to check the long IDs."
