PGP::Sign can do GnuPG.  Most messages don't need the functions it provides.  If you were running a hierarchy, it can be used in place of pgpverify to sign newgroups, rmgroups and checkgroups.  Some moderators use the pgpmoose functions due to problems with approval forgery.

That would work, but I'd describe the option as "PGP::Sign support for 
header signing".
