	This is out of scope of the DNS protocol.  You're getting into 
named.boot or named.conf file changes that have to be made, and that 
is an implementation detail that is out of scope.

	I'm going to have to think about some of the other possible implications.

	One thing that strikes me is that you have eliminated all forms 
of trust, other than the key.  This means that the secondary MUST NOT 
accept unsigned zone transfers, or unsigned content within a zone 
transfer, because it can't trust that the machine with IP address 
123.45.67.89 and key XYZ five minutes ago still has that same IP 
address.

	By default, group replies go back to the original sender plus the 
original recipients.  If you don't want to receive private copies of 
public messages from me, just let me know and I'll try to make sure 
they don't happen for you again.
