That's what I would have expected to happen.

Actually, you probably want to make a secure, delegation to an empty zone, so you can resolve the stuff that belongs to "." securely (e.g. prove that .homenet exists). THEN you place a trust anchor specifically for .homenet to override the values you get from a homenet DS record in ".".

I *think* that would work with most validating resolvers. I seem to remember a big argument many years ago as to whether enclosed trust anchors were additive (to the encloser), ignored (because they were enclosed), or over rode (replaced the encloser) for that branch of the tree but I don't remember the outcome or whether it became canon.

That seems easier than sharing keys or creating subdomains with
nsupdate.  But I don't know much about trust anchors.
Shared keys would be a nightmare.
