I suspect the former, reusing much of the SIDR machinery
perhaps, although....

Right, I've heard the circular dependency arguments. So, are
you suggesting the RPKI isn't going to rely on DNS at all?
I'm of the belief RPKI should NOT be on the critical path, but instead
focus on Internet number resource certification - are you suggesting
otherwise?

That could be easily fixed with trivial tweaks and transitive trust/
delegation graphs that are, I suspect.
