How do you show a list of cached keys in gpg-agent?

I am afraid that is not what the OP wants to know. "Cached keys" in the sense
of "ssh-add -l" are keys whose passphrase is cached. But gpg-agent gives you a
list of all keys it knows (however). I remember having read that it is
explicitly impossible to get a list of the keys with cached passphrases from
gpg-agent.
I just tried the command (for the first time) and something strange happens. I
get a list of five entries. Four of which seem to belong to keys on
smartcards. None contains a fingerprint. Then I opened an encrypted email, was
asked for a passphrase (which was cached: I could open other encrypted emails
afterwards) but the output of "KEYINFO --list" didn't change at all! There is
only one instance of gpg-agent running...
