I also prefer this kind of "subcommand" syntax -- it matches what tools
like git and notmuch use. However, that's a pretty radical departure
from the historical GnuPG command line, and it's likely to break all
sorts of existing things that expect to use the canonical interface.
If we're going to make radical departures like that, perhaps we should
be specifying an entirely new interface that just does "the sensible
bits" without all the rest of the arcana.
