I personally would love such a feature...  But that's out of scope for
the OpenPGP WG as it's completely an implementation detail.


Well, we could put in the draft a comment that providing a re-encrypt mode would be very useful for helping us all to deprecate old crappy algorithms?


Also, it
only works if the signature is inside the encryption ;)


Hmmm... yes.
