Subject: 26.1: gpg error on passphrase typo
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2020 09:16:35 -0400

When making a mistake typing a gpg passphrase, an 'error' is generated,
instead of a 'user-error'. The significance of the difference is that if
the user has enabled 'toggle-debug-on-error', the typo generates an
annoying backtrace buffer that then needs to be killed, followed by a
window navigation to the gpg buffer in use.
