Test API Keys?

I've requested two API keys and it seems to take a while (couple days) to get them. It might be a good idea to have a test API key that's restricted either:
a. To only a few hours per day.
b. Only permit a limited number of requests per day (a few hundred?)
c. Only permit access to a limited set of users/galleries
I don't know how the API key access control system works, so these may be difficult or impossible.
I've been working on a smugmug library the last few days and until, I think, yesterday I was able to use the sessionid from the sample request to test things until my real API keys are issued.
This is probably not a high priority, but it would let developers try things out while waiting for a real API key as well as share working examples of one liners like:
curl -d APIKey=YOUR_API_KEY -d method=smugmug.albums.get -d NickName=studiosells http://api.smugmug.com/hack/rest/
-m
