I think that for existing users who probably have set up some kind of 
script to do the GPG signing, it's just a matter of modifying said 
script.  For new users, it can be easier indeed.

I think that it's a good move, *but* please keep comprehensive 
instructions on how to GPG-sign the tarballs so that new users keep 
signing them.
