Hmm. I think I understand the actual question now. Sorry for
misunderstanding.

You want to be able to specify using symmetric key encryption, which is
not the default gpg operation. pass currently uses a GPGID file which
specifies the id of an assymmetric key and relies on gpg to detect the
key type from the encrypted file.

In order to support symmetric keys then, pass would need to specify
symmetric key encryption when it encrypts the file. I don't believe it
would need anything different for decryption. This doesn't sound hard to
do.
