Will there be a blog post about using gpg-agent as a ssh-agent? :)
BTW, Androids openkeychain supports fully yubikey neo, this is a great addition to using the pass(1) on from mobile with yubikey neo.

While great in theory, the authentication time made it totally impractical to connect to multiple servers at once.
I know this doesn't invalidate the general idea of using gpg-agent as ssh-agent -- just an anecdote.
Does this mean it was slow? I'm using gpg-agent on osx with a neo-n to ssh into boxes and it's not noticeably slow.
This is a somewhat unusual use-case, I will grant, but I also found a somewhat-noticeable delay in connecting to a single server, on the order of several hundred milliseconds.
I wonder if it would all be fine with a 2k key.
:~$ time ssh an6n@mybox exit
real 0m1.910s
user 0m0.024s
sys 0m0.000s

Still, the only password manager simple enough that I can understand it and will actually use.
Part 2 will cover emails (Thunderbird, mutt), pass as a password store, setting up OpenKeychain + a Yubikey Neo on an Android phone, K-9 Mail on Android, Yubico authenticator for Android as a 2-step auth, ssh, and Keybase. Future parts would cover hdd encryption via LUKS, authentication for sudo and more, GPG by NFC on your desktop, GPG intents to open doors, etc.
