gpg-agent waits for a QUALITY inquiry via Assuan from the pjnentry and replies with an integer giving the percent value. A negative percent value requests "red" indication. The argument for the quality inquirement is the passphrase as already entered. The idea is that this inquiry is send after each keystroke.

werner claimed T3218: gpg-agent instances leak.

Well, this is a regression due to us creating creating /run/user/gnupg/ socket directories now on the fly. Thus there is no more need to create non-default home directories via gpgconf. Now, gpg-agent watches the socket file and terminates itself as soon as the socket file vanishes. Before that change the socket for a non-default home directory was created in the homedir itself and thus removing the homedir also removed the socket file and in turn gpg-agent terminated itself.
