For the users I guess an extension of the encryption settings dialog to let
users create a new key or import an available key would be nice.
For example:
1. if gpg has been found make "Use GPG encryption" selectable
2. if users enable gpg and no key has been found, a dialog pops up and let the
user create a new key or import a present key.

gpg4win and gpg bundled with kmymoney shares
C:/Users/xxxx/AppData/Roaming/gnupg/pubring.gpg as key store location. Other
installers/package bundling pgp will use the same store location and can share
the keys.

The keys are shared, the binaries are ignored.

the bin dir is the directory where the executable lives, not the keys

yes, for the exact path see above
