Comment (by jelte):

 Yes; the scenario i have in mind is when you have a large zone, and want
 to change the NSEC3 salt for instance. The 'incremental' way to do that
 would be to add the newly generated NSEC3s in batches (keeping the old,
 and leaving NSEC3PARAM as it is), and when they are all there, replace the
 NSEC3PARAM and start removing the old NSEC3 RRs in batches.

 I'm not saying we should do that, when we do automatic signing we might
 very well replace them all at once, but we should definitely allow the
 scenario at some point.

 I'm guessing we would have multiple NSEC3 namespaces, one of which is
 'active' (as pointed out by the NSEC3PARAM record at the apex).
