I would have been perfectly happy with the new key if you just signed
it with the old one, which is kind of the usual thing anyway.

In fact, I do accept unsigned keys when new people start using them,
in that they can get signatures later and in the meantime the key at
least shows that multiple pull requests were generated with the same
key.

It's just that combination of "new key, not signed by an old key I
know should have been available" that makes me go "Hmm.."

(Of course, I do also prefer to get a heads-up about key changes that
don't just involve a refresh of the expiration date, but nobody ever
remembers to let people know, so I just say "oh, new key" and then
look to make sure that it looks sane).
