Warnings != bugs.
> For more information we have the FAQ:
I'll bet 99% of users don't know where their GnuPG FAQ is at on their
system, if it's installed at all. Furthermore, the FAQ is not linked from
the top page at http://www.gnupg.org/. Furthermore, I'll bet it does
*not* pop into users' head to go to the website to check a FAQ. They
expect programs to be self-explaining as much as possible. Explictly
giving URL in warning is a great way to go.
Sorry Werner, but you haven't been a 'user' for a long time.
