Was just wondering whether this might make sense to move key creation
to sbuild's install time (openssh-server's style). Might be, if/when
the default resolver gets changed.

(“make sense” as in “can be thought of if it's per-host, and not if
it's per-chroot”; other considerations left aside.)

Not tested yet, but sounds sensible.
