Decrypting and leaving signatures intact
PGP 2.6.x has got an option (`-d') which causes it to leave the inner
signature of a PGP packet intact when decrypting it. Is this possible
with GnuPG as well? Is it possible to reencrypt the resulting file
for a different recipient, so that he can verify the signature in the
same way as if no reencryption had taken place?

I am already thinking about implementing this.

That would make sense too.
