This procedure will automatically make the Oracle key trusted for *all* configured repositories (notably Debian). If my reading of sources.list(5) is correct one could store the key in a directory that is *not* /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ and use Signed-By in sources.list to point apt to the correct key. Please make this more obvious/easier to setup, e.g. by shipping an external.gpg.d/ directory, or making this setup more obvious in the manpage. Another idea would be for apt to consider only repository keys installed in a repository-specific location (e.g. path/filename based on origin/label/etc.).
