  Well, I have used symmetric encryption to store my rev certs in an
email account, if I lose everything, at least I would be able to
reinstall GPG, and then revoke my keys. I would also use it to send my
rev certs to very trusted friends, in order they can revoke my keys in
case I drop dead or something like that.

  Best Regards
