one can already do that via the wg-quick PostUp hook, check out the Arch Linux 
wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/
WireGuard#Store_private_keys_in_encrypted_form

The example is using pass, switching it for direct GPG (or keepassxc or 
anything, really) should be easily possible.

Considering that possibility, I don't think adding GnuPG directly into 
Wireguard would be a good idea. It would just add complexity for little to no 
benefit.

Greetings,
NIcolas Lenz
