Debian tools don't care which key you use for email encryption. The
extent of actions you interact with debian is easily modeled with a
single key; for some time I used to upload with 1024D and sign mails
with 4096R because I had not yet pushed my 4096R into the keyring,
waiting to get more signatures (yes, also being keyring-maint it took
me some time to push it, even if I had all power to do so myself!)
