This is already supported in that if you use -u, “dpkg-source -x” will
complain about the bad signature, but still unpack.  The issue is that
dscverify differs from dpkg-source and stops hard when there's a bad
signature.

It sounds like Paul's request is satisfied by using DGET_VERIFY=no as
that will fall through to dpkg-source.  dpkg-source only uses
~/.gnupg/trustedkeys.gpg though, so maybe this should turn into a
wishlist dpkg-dev bug for supporting ~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg or
specification of arbitrary keyring files?
