That is currently maybe the best way, but it creates another problem: What if I
have/want to still be available under my old address?

One solution would be not to split between private/work, but between 
secure/unsecure.
When I leave employer1, I will remove the UID for this address from the 
unsecure and
add it to my secure key. That way, I will still be able to receive new mail on 
my
home machine.

Will it harm to have the same email-part of an UID for two keys? e.g.
- Klaus (secure) kl...@employer1.de
- Klaus (unsecure) kl...@employer1.de
