Sure, and as noted, this is fine in practice, but in theory it violates
the most conservative of the algorithm rollover process models.
In that model, when adding an algorithm, the RRSIGs appear first, then a
few TTLs later, the associated zone apex DNSKEY, and then finally the
associated parent DS RR. And when removing an algorithm, the DS goes
first, then a few TTLs later, the apex DNSKEYs, and the RRSIGs go last.
In practice, no widely used resolvers are known to have any issues with
the "missing" RRSIGs for algorithms not listed in the DS RRset, and
the flagging of the issue by DNSViz is a technicality. I just wanted
to note this, in case anyone looking at the DNSViz links is put off
by the associated hazard signs.
I expect Carsten decided that just publishing the future new KSK is
not a problem, despite the technicality.
