[Opendnssec-user] SOA TTL behaviour

While investigating why a bind signer and an opendnssec signer ended up
with a different SOA record from the same unsigned zone, I found that
opendnssec modified the SOA's TTL.

It's behaviour is defined in the kasp.xml <SOA> section that provides
the override, but does not seem to have an option "keep" (like it does
for the serial)

I would prefer to not have to hardcode a TTL value outside of the
unsigned zone file. If this ever changes, someone will forget to
update the kasp.xml to match the unsigned zonefile's SOA TTL value.

Is there a reason why opendnssec wants to take over control of this
value?
