Can you please share a public domain name where this can be tested? I 
promise we won't steal it from you. I can create some for testing, but 
that would delay delivering fixes even more.

No, it should not happen and is undesired issue if it does. I admit we 
run bind9 test suite with DEFAULT:SHA1 policy to avoid unexpected false 
positives. If we had this fixed properly, it might have warned us. But 
we are still preparing unmodified upstream fixes. This seems like a 
regression we want to fix too.

I admit we do not have any our test doing validation of disabled and 
supported algorithm at the same time. It seems like one should be 
created ASAP.

It is our current top priority and I cannot comment it more.
