The machine-readable index code is pretty simple and direct. There aren't
really any options other than to produce the mr index (&options=mr).

Using the input from this week's thread on the list and David Shaw's HKP
draft, we decided the best solution was to return the 16-digit key ID for V3
keys and the full fingerprint for V4 keys.

This, along with the earlier key expiration time work of Kristian's will soon
be available on the bitbucket repository. The two fixes are already running on
keyserver.gingerbear.net and sks.keyservers.net for testing.
