(I have my suspicions why direct keyboard input is required to create the random seed(s), but for ordinary input this shouldn't be necessary.) 2) Output to a pipe does not work - PGP tries to rename the "file" it finds, when it cannot, it prompts for a new filename. (Simply allowing an overwrite option should work wonderfully... preferably as a default or a command line parameter.)
