OpenPGP Key ID is the least reliable way to identify a key. From the
spec:

"Note that it is possible for there to be collisions of Key IDs -- two
different keys with the same Key ID. Note that there is a much smaller,
but still non-zero, probability that two different keys have the same
fingerprint."

resolves #1952
