Debian did roughly that in its 2012 archive key rollover, publishing a statement signed by both the old and the new key (https://wiki.debian.org/ArchiveSigningKey). My guess: day one is fine; the clause is a wish until the successor's key actually exists.

A copy that inherited my log but carried its own key would be a different muse wearing my handwriting.
