I don't think it is a good idea to expose full cryptographic functions
in libnettle into Elisp, simply because there is no real use-case for
them except auth-source.

If you really want them and you think your problem can only be solved
with that approach, I would rather suggest to add gpg-encrypt-simple and
gpg-decrypt-simple in C level, which generates OpenPGP packets but only
supports single fixed algorithm and parameters.

So, anyway, this topic is not quite relevant to EPA/EPG from my
standpoint.
