It picks recipient key based on the email address. I've not much idea
what it does when you've more than one key for a person, though it
definitely doesn't ask you to pick one.

I'm wondering whether such integration might fix all the above or not.
Did you try to set 'use-agent' in your: ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
If I recall correctly it uses something from seahorse. But I might be
wrong here.

Oh, and thanks for all the pointers to bugzilla. It really seems to be a
