You have a point.  I don't remember making that particular design decision,
but I probably just didn't think about it.  "Reset the acceptance timer"
implies the existence of a timer; if I'd deleted the key, there wouldn't
be a timer to reset. :)

Feel free to open a ticket at bind9-b...@isc.org.  It's not likely to be
a particularly high-priority fix, though.
