It's both. Have you tried using Enigmail or Mailvelope? Oh man. Enigmail on
Windoze last time I checked couldn't handle passwords with non-ASCII chars (I
think this is *still true*). Mailvelope requires you to explicitly select the
keys you want to encrypt your message with instead of at least pre-filling the
list with addressees of the e-mail.
The most usable PGP/GPG interface I've seen (and am still using, even though
there are other problems with the broader setup) is KMail+KGPG. And it could
*still* be much more convenient.
Simple thing that any such interface could do to make key
exchange/verification much easier and manageable to 90% of people is letting
you use key fingerprints instead of e-mails in the To/CC fields:

And yes, motivation is a large, large issue too! But usability of most of the
tools is dismal.
