For anyone unaware, the TSA lock master key was leaked by including a photo of an actual master key in a newspaper article about said locks. I don't think encryption keys shared with police/govt. will be any safer.

Everyone knows that encryption master keys will go exactly the same way -- they'll leak eventually (maybe there'll be a newspaper article with a picture of the master key).
