Yeah, this is really cool.

But I have a question. Do you only want to write a generic C++ wrapper 
or do you intend to write a QT wrapper, e.g. 
GnuPGmeWrapper::encrypt(QString message, QStringList recipients). As we 
mainly use QT objects in KDE it wouldn't make much sense to use some 
generic C++ objects instead of QT objects.

Well, this is already available in KMail and KNode (the code is 
actually in libkdenetwork). But currently we don't use gpgme. Instead 
we directly call GnuPG (or PGP).

We should definitely discuss the interface. Where should this 
discussion take place? On kde-core-devel which I'm currently not 
subscribed to?
