Import just adds in the new uids and sigs.  It's really not any
different from wgetting the plug keyring and --importing that.  If you
do

gpg -v --import

(-v means verbose) then gpg will show you everything it's adding.

Yes.

In fact, I've added a few new sigs recently.  I should send Darxus a
new copy of my key, too.
