As OpenDNSSEC was designed to handle keys automatically I do not see a point 
with adding the manual steps you are describing and the functionality you want 
already exists, just set the KSK lifetime to 10 or 100 years and manage the KSK 
rollover manually.

I don’t know if you can see exactly that somewhere but you can see when the 
next rollover and maybe you can see when the key was created/introduced 
somewhere and calculate how old it is.
