GPG support? (like SSH)

Would it be possible to add similar support for GPG keys?

Currently have my GPG key stored in 1Password as a simple file entry. Would be absolutely awesome if there instead was an actual item type for GPG keys, and there were tools that allowed me to use it in various ways directly via 1Password.

For example, if the Quick Access, when choosing a GPG item, allowed me to quickly sign or encrypt/decrypt selected text.

Would also be great if the GPG key could be used for signing git commits and such, like you can with SSH keys now.

    Thanks for sharing your interest svish I appreciate it. I've let the team know this would be a valuable addition to your toolkit.

      Thanks, it really would be very helpful!

      As others say there are a lot of GPG tools around, but I'd say most of them are not necessarily very user friendly. It's also very true that there really is a lot to OpenPGP and GPG, but 1Password could start small by adding certain very helpful features (like signing, encrypt/decrypt, editing easy to change details in the key, etc.), and later add more involved stuff (like revoking of keys, integration with key servers, probably via the CLI, and so on)
