Well, currently a problem is the only way to get a trusted path to the bpo
repository is by fetching debian-backports-keyring from it, checking your
signature in its .dsc, etc.  So this is what I'm trying to solve.

As for being non-official, I can try to make it clear in the package
description that this key isn't officially endorsed by Debian, etc; does
this sound fine to you?
