Mental arithmetic. There are 2^16 possible key tags => there's a one in 2^15 
chance a new tag clashes with an existing one. If a DNSSEC key changes every 
day, it'll take 2^15 days (~100 years) on average before there's a collision. 
That's good enough for my definition of "not causing issues". YMMV.

I accept there's a theoretical possibility of a key tag clash causing issues 
Petr. IMO that possibility is just too low to bother about. If this has caused 
actual operational problems, surely this WG would have heard about them by now. 
AFAICT it hasn't.

You said partially bogus RRSIG RRsets can cause a validator to exceed its limit 
of allowed validation attempts. Fine. So please suggest how to fix that 
problem. It's not clear to me how key tag collisions has any bearing on how to 
deal with bogus RRSIGs.
