It might be prudent to have GnuPG return an error exit code instead of just printing a warning on stderr. Currently, it seems that clients (at least when using the shell interface) are supposed to parse the error stream. And even when they do (which many probably don’t), it’s not necessarily obvious that the presence of warnings indicates to the client that the data should not be used.
