How about adding the tag2upload keys to a NEW keyring instead?

https://salsa.debian.org/debian-keyring/keyring/

I think tag2upload is a different enough mechanism that it could warrant
an entire new class of keyring.  By including it in the official debian
keyring package, we get some historic accountability of which keys were
used.  You also get a way to phase in new keys and phase out old keys.

I suggest not putting it in the "debian-role-keys" but instead a new
"debian-tag2upload-keys" keyring.  It seems like a sensible
implementation approach to accept any key in that keyring as being a
"tag2upload" key, rather than hard-coding particular key fingerprints in
various configuration files or scripts.
