Hey, I'm absolutely not sugesting to modify security policy, I hope
you have understood it. I'm talking about an *altervative* method to
generate PGP/SSH keys and sign files in a way they can be recognized
by Fedora Account System engine. Because, today, there no one
information about using a GUI to generate PGP/SSH keys.

I said if you think that command line is better you can't say to
others they can't use a GUI, as well as anyone who think that using a
GUI is better can't say to others they can't use command line.

Yes, I know it. I use CLI every day, every time because at most cases
giving commands allows me to do tasks in a faster way than using
GUI's. But this is not the issue.

Yes, it's right. I never said Fedora need to avoid using CLI
interfaces on its CLA process. Again, this is not the issue.
