WhatsApp should make three hanged:
1. handle new keys the same way Chrome handles expired SSL certs: a big warning with the option to continue anyway if you want
2. Don't automatically resend a message with a new key (require the user to manually resend, like when iMessage falls back on MMS)
3. enable the key change notifications and make disabling them an "advanced" setting
WhatsApp is making the right choice by designing for ease of use, I think they just landed a little too far away from a secure implementation.
