I recommend that you not set an expiration date for any key
until you have created its successor.

We have plans to improve this in 9.7.x (where x probably equals 1)
in a couple of ways: first, by making it possible to assign each key
an explicit successor key and warn the user if a key is set to expire
without a successor; second, by making it possible to configure
named itself to generate new keys.
