+ Enable the use of a new secret key export format. This format
+ avoids the re-encryption as required with the current OpenPGP format
+ and also improves the security of the secret key if it has been
+ protected with a passphrase. Note that an unprotected key is
+ exported as-is and thus not secure; the general rule to convey
+ secret keys in an OpenPGP encrypted file still applies with this
+ mode. Versions of GnuPG before 2.4.0 are not able to import such a
