Hmm. Using a flag which is not documented (except in that it exists) seems
kind of a hack, too. If the correct behaviour of openpgp software is to be
left to implementors, why not use a notation - which is more flexible than a
one-bit flag anyway?
It doesn't need much documentation. This is similar to the "This key
may be used to encrypt communications" or "This key may be used to
encrypt storage" flags: a usage hint.
I think the proposed flag is a good idea.
