Function mml-secure-check-sub-key avoids disabled keys,
mml-secure-find-usable-keys calls that.  You may want to call the
latter instead of epg-list-keys.  That’s what I do in jl-encrypt.el
[1].

In jl-encrypt.el the user can confirm that they really want to send
plaintext although keys are available.
