Even better would be using "--sig-keyserver-url" to embed the URL in an 
appropriate packet.

Details here:
https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/GPG-Esoteric-Options.html

Note that unless "honor-keyserver-url" is set in the config explicitly 
this is not used by default by GnuPG (see comments about 
"auto-key-retrieve" here: 
https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/GPG-Configuration-Options.html 
).

And, if the key is available via WKD using "--sender $EMAIL" as GnuPG 
can fetch the missing key over WKD (using only --auto-key-retrieve).

Kind regards,
Wiktor
