I'll try to update the ones on the web, but the changes in this
version affect more to how GPA reacts than to how it looks (basically,
a lot of effort has gone into keeping it from freezing while gpg is
running).

I don't think so. It looks like management of S/MIME certificates is
much simpler than that of PGP keys. So mixing both would confuse
S/MIME users. In my opinion a  different program should be used for
that.

However, if someone has an idea of how to mix both properly, I'm open
to suggestions.

Thanks,
