ensure dialogs do not go off-screen by showing too much output
Reported by steve | April 16th, 2021 @ 03:07 PM | in 2.2 (closed)
One report shows an example with many KEYEXPIRED lines in the
key import dialog of the public key
5054 3A3D A4B1 DB81 DA3E 79CB 509C 9D63 34C8 0F11.
KEYEXPIRED is not really informative as per definition: The key has expired. expire-timestamp is the expiration time in seconds since Epoch. This status line is not very useful because it will also be emitted for expired subkeys even if this subkey is not used. To check whether a key used to sign a message has expired, the EXPKEYSIG status line is to be used.
To prevent mass display of this information we should remove it from dialogs.
