Won't happen before IMP 5.0 though.

I use several identities, i.e. one with my private email and one with my university one. Since PGP keys are somewhat bound to one email addy, I have created one key for each identity to be able to sign mails sent with either identity. However, IMP does only allow _one_ key pair for the hole account. Thus, I cannot work both identities equally featured at once. I suggest giving IMP the ability to handle one key pair per identity and automatically choose the fitting one for both signing and decrypting messages.
