If keys are distributed with prokit, **revocations and key transitions need to
be handled somehow**.
+A user already has to import a key into their own keyring to verify their prokit
+download. Maybe it's better to just instruct users to also download the archive
+signing key(s) into their keyrings. This takes advantage of existing PKI, and
+leaves users to make sure their keyring is kept updated with signatures,
+revocations, changed expiration dates, and transitions. It also avoids having
+released prokit versions "expire" due to included keys expiring.
+
+Suggestions welcome.
