I see what you mean.

Good question!

I think our intention was that the validUntil attribute on the outgoing key 
would be set as soon as the key was decommissioned, or revoked, or was 
otherwise not considered a sensible key to use. Since such circumstances would 
always correspond to the presence of a more current key, this seemed sufficient.

If a client retrieves a trust anchor package and an outgoing anchor is 
technically still usable (in an RFC5011 roll) but the incoming anchor is also 
specified, is there any circumstance where we might expect that client to 
prefer the outgoing anchor?
