Well, first it has to make it into the OpenPGP Standard. And usually to do
that, it would likely need to be part of some governmental or business
standard so that large numbers of end-users would want/need it.
I think that should be implemented despite of the way goverments are going,.. Goverments are often trying to restrict cryptography (see US) and also here in Germany (using X.509 only which is in my opinion less secure than OpenPGP as its using a hierarchical certificate system).

So why not just implementing ECC for GnuPG and making the first step for a (new) OpenPGP standard?
