Pacman-key
The tone and remarks concerning pacman-key in the wiki indicate PGP signing is upcoming(although not yet default).
Not really needing such a system if I utilize pacman for upgrades regularly, I find it not a welcome change.
I wonder, for example, if a custom raid boot is utilized not utilizing user but only root will not accept the pacman-key system.
This seems to violate the KISS principle as well making the system more complex and subject to interface whammies not yet envisioned.
Attempting to upgrade this date resulted in no package upgrade w/o pacman-key.
If I try to upgrade w/o pacman-key included...... what then?
Can I disregard pacman-key and run ---Syuf....to upgrade? Am I shut off from upgrades w/o pacman-key?
Prediction...This year will be a very odd year!

Re: Pacman-key
The SigLevel directive is valid in both the [options] and repository sections. If used in [options], it sets a default value for any repository that does not provide the setting.
* If set to Never, no signature checking will take place.
