Maybe even give a warning some time _before_ you run out of keys...? ;)

You should never run out of keys. Every time you sync, you also check if
there are many keys left to use... if you sync once a day, as soon as you
have less than 10 times the expected daily usage of keys left to use, you
request a new set of keys.

You still would have to handle duplicates.
