[Opendnssec-develop] Key sharing and new zones

Hi

What logic should we have when adding new zones to a policy that is sharing keys between already existing zones?

The current trunk takes take the first available keys. But that means that the zone will most likely get dead or retired keys (according to the other zones). The keys will be assigned since they haven't been purged yet. Shouldn't we use the newest set of keys in order to be aligned with the zone that has progressed the furthest in key rollovers?

The reason not to use a dead or retired key is because we somehow have determined them to be unsafe to use, when we do a rollover.
