I am not sure wheat I understand your request. --quick-add-uid takes a fingerprint as first argument you _may _ use a a user-id instead but that is for consistency with all gpg commands. Using the fingerprint is always highly suggested.

re: last question: Marking a notation as recognized does not mean gpg does do anything with it or that it demands this notation. The latter can be handled by the caller. For example, gpg knows about "preferred-email-encoding@pgp.com" but does not apply any semantic to it.

BenM added a comment to T3505: Port GPGME's Python bindings to Windows.

Though a CFFI/ABI solution may be the only option, it would still be preferable to get SWIG working under Windows. The reasons for this are many, but not least of which would include not needing to duplicate effort to accommodate Windows, no functionality mismatch due to using the Windows version and not needing to implement every function manually since CFFI can't generate low level bindings the same way that SWIG does.

@werner I was hoping to make a modified gpg-agent build that would let me walk through what's going on after the nonce is sent but it looks like the gpg4win process only takes in a package of pre-built gpg binaries which rules that out. As far as I can figure out, after the nonce is read and accepted, libassuan creates a stream object out of the socket and then finding nothing in the stream terminates the ssh handler. We send the actual client request immediately after the nonce but in a separate call to send() so I now wonder if by not having anything read in at the same time as the nonce gpg-agent or libassuan thinks that it's a 0-length stream.

My experience is that using a string is much easier and less error prone that to build up and allocate an error obj objects. A string leads to less code and bugs are easier to detect. There are enough patter on to handle strings in a safe way and key specs are in most cases already available in string form (e.g. hex fingerprints), be it from a mail interface, as a result of a database query or from the command line.
