Oh, OK, then I understand, thanks.

I'd prefer to keep using Elisp for customization, and to handle the keys
in a more automated way.

I really want it to be as seamless as possible for the user, so the user
should not have to setup any key infrastructure herself.

As far as possible, I'd recommend to stick with "*ring.gpg" for the
keyrings, but if it's not possible, it's OK.  Also this should be mostly
transparent to the user since she shouldn't have to manage those files
by hand, so the name isn't that important.
