Well, I haven't seen the code, but some ideas I'd have for enhancements
are:
- signatures at the end of the packets for one-time data passes
- signature revocations
- userID revocations
- real database key management
- extensions for alternative encryption and message digest algorithms
- modularization of the code
- a PGP library and API
- much of the wish list Vesselin Bontchev has created
