Yes. In fact, I'd recommend it. Saves having to try to keep track of 2
keys / dev.

Having said that, for those that just use "keys" for e-mails (most of
us), it would make more sense to use full blow SSL certs in the long run.
(Mathematically, same thing. But a cert needs to be signed by a CA, and
we should ideally maintain a Gentoo CA.) I need to get up to speed with
the GLEP's pertaining to this. Let's just say I have a fair bit of
experience in this field. I may be able to offer some ideas /
suggestions. I would very much like to see this happen.

But for the meantime, yes, it's safe.
