I was looking at the riseup OpenPGP best practices document and I
noticed that someone had added a link to a bash reimplementation. The
author claims it has an advantage over parcimonie of using unique Tor
circuits for each key fetch. Personally I don't think bash is the
appropriate language to implement this though.

The most valuable thing that could improve parcimonie would be to
include an implementation of the concept in GnuPG itself. The only
problem with that would be the UI parts but those could be kept
separated.
