Maybe GnuPG already does this, but instead of a two-step process first
trying cached keys non-interactively and then falling back to trying
keys with prompting for passphrases, GnuPG could also simply, in one
plain standard invocation, first try all the cached secrets and when
that fails start prompting for even more secret keys.

HTH,
