I completely agree for creating keys, for which there is the
batch-file approach.  Adding subkeys is another matter.

And while I have never written anything that 'lives in sin' in the way
you describe, I was just pointing out that if Warner was assuming such
things exist (I am sure they do) then there could be unfortunate
consequences as a result of the way this (entirely proper) change has
been made!
