There is a paragraph about this at 
http://users.isc.org/~jreed/dnssec-guide/dnssec-guide.html#same-key-for-multiple-zones

It seems to me that most of the cost of DNSSEC key management is dealing with 
parent delegation changes. Sharing keys between zones does NOT help with this, 
partly because the zone name is part of the DS hash, so DS records are 
different for the same key in different zones.

About the only reason I can see for sharing keys is if you are using an HSM 
which does not support as many keys as you have zones.
