When trying to verify a signature and the signing certificate is not yet in the keyring, the wizard presents and error message, naming the certificate's ID. However, one can't copy this ID to the clipboard. There's no option of gathering this certificate from a keyserver either.
So one has to write down the ID, exit the dialog, search for the certificate on a keyserver, download it, and try again. That's not very user-friendly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
It should either be possible to copy the unknown certificate's ID to the clipboard or maybe even provide the possibility of initiating this workflow from within the current wizard's dialog.

I'll check this issue with current Kleopatra (KDE 4.10.3) and Gpg4win package.
