I like this idea better than just not putting the DNSKEY in the DNSKEY
RRset.  Is anyone doing their deployment this way?

On the other hand, I suppose it doesn't really matter whether one does
it this way or by just not including the DNSKEY on the child side.  In
either case, you have to use the old key until the TTL expires
(because without an RRSIG, the new key won't be useful either).  So
why add the key to the DNSKEY RRset at all?
