Sounds like a missing feature in quilt - can you open a feature request 
for GPG signing, please?

(I'm "solving" this by not using quilt, but I also admit that "manually" 
sending out a patch series is more work - and already patched KMail a 
bit to make it slightly easier. [1])

Agreed.

Problems for the receiver? Besides "what's that strange attachment / 
those strange lines" in MUAs that don't know what GPG is, I'm not aware 
of possible problems ;-)
