How about something with a little more explanation and a slightly
stronger suggestion?

   When designing a registry system one should consider which of the
   DNSKEYs and/or the corresponding DSs to store [or accept from
   registrants?].  Since a child zone might wish to have a DS
   published using a message digest algorithm not yet understood by
   the registry, the registry can't count on being able to generate
   the DS record from a raw DNSKEY.  Thus, we recommend that registry
   system at least support storing [accepting] DS records.

   It may also be useful to store [accept] DNSKEYs, since having them
   may help during troubleshooting and, so long as the child's chosen
   message digest is supported, the overhead of generating DS records
   from them is minimal.  Having an out-of-band mechanism, such as a
   Whois database, to find out which keys are used to generate DS
   Resource Records for specific owners and/or zones may also help
   with troubleshooting.
