 Replying to [comment:6 sukhbir]:
 > This seems like a good solution in light of the GPG changes, compared to
 the HTTP proxy solution we have right now, which I feel is essentially
 broken.

 Cool :)

 > Before I merge: is there a reason why the
 `extensions.enigmail.agentAdditionalParam` preferences were removed?

 I don't remember. Looking at my branch again, I wonder if it was a mere
 mistake on my side, or if effectively
 `extensions.enigmail.agentAdditionalParam` is useless since we set the
 same prefs in the function my branch patches in
 `chrome/content/preferences.js`. I'll need to test my branch with GnuPG
 1.x to confirm; I might be able to do that later this week, but if I can't
 it'll have to wait until my next time slot allocated to this topic (mid-
 March)... unless someone else beats me to it :)
