Bug Description
When quotas were rearchitected back in Pike, a recheck mechanism was added to handle racing parallel requests in order to enforce strict quota limits. However, when quotas for key pairs were converted [1], rechecking for quota was missed in import_key_pair. Quota recheck was added only to create_key_pair.
This is a very latent bug and it could be debated whether quota rechecking is useful enough, considering that quota limits on resources like key pairs were meant primarily to defend against denial of service attacks which try to fill up the database.
