Another possible work-around might be adding an alias for the key in
the gpg config (~/.gnupg/gpg.conf). You can do this using the group
option. There's an example in the config file and some documentation
in the man/info page. Something like this is what I'm thinking:
group address_NOT_on_key@xxxxxxxxxxx = address_on_key@xxxxxxxxxxx
It may also be worth asking on any seahorse list or filing an RFC to
allow you to modify the list of keys used.

I do nothing, granted. But I see the hours pass - which is better than
trying to fill them.
