And while thinking about a compromised Computer...

Maybe it would be also very nice if the Pinentry program
would allow in the future also mouse input via an additional
virtual keyboard, like for example the software for the
Kanguru Defender 3000 USB stick has. Thus in case of such
a scenario one would simply draw a message, in let's say
the free Gimp software, encrypt the image and voilá a secret
message could still be created and send, imho.
