Bug Description
I added my GPG key
I added my GPG key. The primary UID email address was not registered in my foaf account but the other email addresses were.
So it added the new email address to my account and sent me the email.
The confusing part is that some pages - and the email - referred to validating my email address, and other pages refer to the GPG key, so it leaves me unsure as to whether the GPG key has been processed - the last page in the process said only "Email validated successfully". I had to go back to +editgpgkey to see if it was there or not.

The first situation could be a real bug, I'll verify it soon and let you know.
The other is related with "what is an GPG UID beyond a new email address ?", I can't see a reason to treat it different, but maybe it lacks some feedback when it includes your GPG key entry, which basically is done when you validade one of its UIDs.
