On the other hand, if the user received a malicious mail explicitly asking to
click so and so to export secret keys, does the GUI have to issue several
warnings before eventually letting the user do it? What about users who are so
gullible to not actually discern true from false?
Trying to support _all computer users_[*] may turn out to displease more than
expected.
