The reason is that I have some groups where I never sign my email, such as
those for my clients who just can't be made to understand that PGP is not a
virus (well, in the standard sense :) ).  My current setup lets me set a
default method of signing, then configure a different method (or no method
at all) on a per-topic or per-group basis.
