So, if I understand well, you want remove the APT_KEY_DONT_WARN_ON_DANGEROUS_USAGE environment variable but keep the warning when APT-KEY detect that its output is captured? That would be tedious for us.. We do not want such a warn in our case. We capture STDOUT for the purpose of debugging (STDOUT goes to a log file and is print to screen, depending on context).

Sometime, you should let developers take decisions. If they are not able to stick to the man page recommendations, that not your problem, isn't it? Or do you consider that all developers are idiot?

BTW: It seem that simply putting keys into the trusted directory is not sufficient. APT still warn about missing PUBKEY... See also https://askubuntu.com/questions/31286/additional-keyrings-for-apt-in-trusted-gpg-d
