So, in thinking about and discussing this more, I would like to justify my position somewhat: while I am not super happy about the added permission given to dhcpd, I do think that people who install both dhcpd and bind9 on the same system will tend to use dynamic updates, and at least some of those people are disabling AppArmor to work around this bug, resulting in a decrease in security for these users. For dhcpd servers that don't have bind9 installed (I would imagine most), this change does nothing because rndc.key doesn't exist.
