Thank you for your very thorough answer! I am a windows user and do a lot 
of backups etc with gnupg. I have so far only managed to make some batch 
files that simplify my daily work - scripting has been unsuccessful.

I have interpreted Werners answer this way:

1) Use an archiver as a temporary solution. (I can always store the 
encrypted file, that is without compression, and add the date and time to 
the output file.)

2) This important feature is not for GnuPG, but it can be implemented in 
frontends for Windows. I have so far suggested it to GPGee (the Explorer 
extensions). It could just as well be implemented in other frontends, like 
WinPT.

My recent hope is that the very nice GPGee will make some of my batch files 
unnecessary.
