Actually, to nitpick, this would have nothing to do with the CHK
specification. Nodes only know the routing keys, which are the hashes of the
CHK/SSK/KSK. Still, a node can determine the key size directly.
I would love to see this, as it would mean I (on dialup) could become a useful
permanent node.
