Here's what I have got so far...
http://bigworm.colorado.edu/imp-patches/openpgp/
Essentially, everything is in place to allow a user to create/delete his
keys from IMP. Also, as can be seen by the screenshots, information about
keys can be returned. To store the public/private key, I am currently
using preferences. When I move on to a public keyring for others' keys, I
think I am going to go with Chuck's suggestion and use Turba to store this
information.
Thanks for all the input. I think I am just going to try to get a basic,
functional, working framework down first, and then I will worry about how
to tighten up security as much as possible.

p.s. cliff - if you want to work together to form some kind of framework
for Horde_Crypt (since you are doing that x509 stuff) let me know. I have
already started to implement the Horde_Crypt module (which the openpgp
stuff extends) and i could use input/help on what the API should be like.
