Just a few comments while glancing on the text.

MUAs shall not have a key generation wizard because all information required is already available. Thus the only thing a MUA needs is a confirmation prompt to create a key - everything else is done unattended.

New MUAs should not have this option. Users who really want different key parameters may still create them with the CLI or a specialized application.

A signed mail already indicates that. Thus the OpenPGP header is not needed anymore. I even doubt that it has ever been in widespread use.
