Sorry I didn't use the right terminology. I meant an "emacs --daemon"
I.e. run an emacs process as a server and then connect to it via
emacsclient. This server can sit in the background with no tty nor GUI
frame open anywhere. If you then "emacsclient -eval <something>" and
this <something> involves opening a .gpg file you might get stuck with
an emacs server. In any case, this is hypothetical. I haven't even
tried it, and who knows maybe it does behave properly in the end
(e.g. gpg2 errors out because it can't find any X11 display nor any tty
to use to prompt the user).
So let's not worry about it too much until there's a concrete
problematic case.
