Bug Description

It should be an option for a user to upload a GPG public key (or even a fingerprint if it's on, say, keyserver.ubuntu.com) and instruct launchpad to use this to encrypt all emails sent to the user.

Allowing encrypted email is worth it, as users who want sensitive emails encrypted also benefit from encrypting benign emails. Plus, who knows if someone might want communication from launchpad to be encrypted for its own sake?
