Some cut-and-paste (or piping the e-mail to a command) would be necessary evil, though, as you would have GPG keys from more than one trusted person in your keyring, and when you are responding to a pull-request from person A, finding a valid commit signed by person B should not be a success, but at least should raise a warning.
