KMS policies has its own permissions which allows specific users to take certain actions. These permissions override regular IAM permissions and therefore need to be configured correctly during creation. This change allows the root user of the aws account to modify kms keys. The root user should never be used in the first place but this serves as a break glass use case.

Nice, this should prevent orphaned keys. Any docs we should update to let users know that roles with kms perms in the same account will have access to manage these kms keys?
