Why? You would only add it to the question for DNSKEY of the root.
Maybe only after you determined a validation failure, so you clearly
have the wrong trust anchor.

It seems in general, having some special record signed by only the
new key seems a nicer solution, as it allows for large network
monitors (eg atlas) to use unmodified dns servers. But it will require
some kind of legal/contractual change :(
