What would you want it encrypted with? This is what your passphrase is for.

Why PGP private keys are saved without encryption? Even passwords are optionally protected, but for private keys its absolutely necessary. The private key feature is worthless for me if it remains like that. Hope you'll find a solution for that. Regards, Mat
