Oh did I leave them in place for these paths?  I'll drop them too.

I was thinking of that...  W/o a src or dest key, the overlay will
always be on top.  That's probably reasonable for simple cases, so
having a "key present" flag makes sense.

Which means setting a 0 dest key would mean "disable dest key" and go
back to the default behavior.  So the interface would stay the same
even if we added other key types in the future.
