In my opinion public license software is about empowering people. If you need an "expert" to install a software for you, the dependency on a software vendor is replaced by the dependency on an "expert", which might be even worse in some circumstances. Experts should also see their role in empowering people. Yes, there is a necessity to have good GUI based installers that don't need an experts assistance to get things right (and eventually change the insecure gpg defaults for that matter...) gpg4win works just fine.(So does Truecrypt or Academic Signature if you look at other crypto) The users must invest some minutes in understanding what asymmetric cryptography is about, however. That should be well within the scope of people with normal intelligence. Without that very basic understanding, using GnuPG(or other public key crypto) would be reckless nonsense anyways. Becoming a console wizard should definitely not be necessary.
