With this model, the fingerprint changing is a hard failure.

Now if you're scoping in key rotation - that is indeed a hard problem.  Does COPR rotate keys today at all?  I think it's fair to say that key rotation is the most broken-by-design thing about GPG.  It's not clear to me that DNS is the right answer though.
