This works. Thanks a lot!

Yeah, it would be good if there were a hook to be able to send to remote
gpg... because everything else works so smoothly with simple
wrappers. Even if it were just a matter of setting a custom gpg command
(like gpg-notmuch, which would be a shell script that would send the
calls to the remote gpg).

With notmuch, I can just override the command itself, because there is
no local meaning... but I obviously don't want to override gpg globally
- only in the context of adding public keys.
