But this is different.  If you don't want encrypted mail, then you should
publish only the DSS key.  That would be the easiest way, though I don't
know if there is a method of doing so in the spec.

Not if you've already published the key when the rules change (war breaks
out, and receiving encrypted mail becomes de fact treason).  At that point,
you need actually to rescind the implicit permission to encrypt ... key
revocation (or revocation of only the encrypt half) might do it.
