Comment(by special):

 That solution would not work for my use case. I want to avoid ever having
 the hidden service keys on the filesystem - so that the controller can
 manage safe, secure storage. That means it would need some method of
 exchanging the service key itself over the control protocol (possibly
 still via settings).

 As for the replaying to SETCONF, that is a much lesser issue. It could
 theoretically be a race condition that would result in some service being
 left out, but I don't think that's a primary concern.
