The space for DNSKEY and DS algorithms is one octet, so each of the two
registries has remaining space for around 250 algorithms and thus we
can't be "too wasteful".  Still, I wouldn't expect too many to want a
code point, so perhaps it could be optimistically started and only
restricted if getting too much popularity.
