See also https://github.com/rpm-software-management/libdnf/issues/43 - a 
massive difference today between /usr/bin/dnf and libdnf-based things (like 
rpm-ostree and PackageKit) is that libdnf auto-imports keys without prompting.

For ostree we added support for doing the same, so that's how our rpm-ostree 
based systems work by default (same set of GPG keys).

There should really be an entirely separate flow for system repos versus 3rd 
party.  It's just plain dumb for us to prompt the user "Do you trust this 
Fedora GPG key" if we already put the RPMs on disk!

This is still today worked around in e.g.
https://pagure.io/fedora-kickstarts/blob/main/f/fedora-cloud-base.ks#_110
for traditional yum/dnf based systems.

For 3rd party repositories like COPR, as I noted in that issue I think the best 
is to bootstrap trust over TLS - e.g. we have
```
gpgkeyfingerprint=<sha256>
```

Having the full fingerprint supports fetching the key from anywhere too.


And the fingerprint+key is fetched via TLS, effectively a trust-on-first-use 
style model.
