When sending a channel key, it should be able to do an ordinary nick-to-nick key exchange first if there is no key set, or re-enable encryption for the nick name if it has been disabled with /encoff.
A major bug with /sendkey was found (and fixed in alpha 28).
It would send the channel key in unencrypted form through IRC to some nick name targets despite them having an encryption key set.
This bug was found by myself and not reported before it was fixed and alpha 28 was released.
The full channel key exchange (that includes a nick name key exchange) is still considered, but I have not decided on it yet.
