You can still use

    ssh user@host cat keyfile | mount -p 0 -o gpgkey=/etc/foo

that uses /etc/foo key file that _is_ stored locally, but if that key file
is gpg encrypted with password like

    P+zl9O2QYxJZcgMO94+IN9ezfjf/BVQsNEOXajbWRnO2ok/FLQDD8zCsDDyT

that you pipe through ssh to mount. What is the problem with that?
