Well, as you can tell from my message just now, I don't think going  
from agreeing on a narrow time to agreeing on a wider time is worth  
the trouble, especially since by adding a BGP message it would be  
possible to roll over if and as soon as both sides are ready,  
removing the "wait for some time and then see whether the other end  
really installed the new key" part from the proceedings.
