By the looks of schema.sql, there's an unsafe and inelegant way:

monotone debug "delete from public_keys where id='address@hidden'"
monotone debug "delete from private_keys where id='address@hidden'"

You could even check that the keys weren't used first:

monotone debug "select hash from manifest_certs where keypair='address@hidden'"

However, I'm not sure I'd be brave enough actually to try it.
