Other parts of that proposal would have (see Hal's comment) but not the part you are quoting.
I don't know how necessary it is to rehash the key, as Lee proposes here, though. It would keep you from being able to see what keys you have in the saved DataStore, but anybody who actually wanted to know what keys they had could just take logs of the incoming messages. Keeping the node blind has to be done on a protocol level, and having it not know what keys it has is unfortunately impossible.
