Yes, it's a solution that comes 'for free'.

Recording the reserve would require more "staus flags" associated with
reserves, so more db work. And generating a new key pair when the user wants
to create a new reserve doesn't decrease sensibly the performance. And from
the UX perspective, I would suggest a "Reserve creation failed" message to
show to the user, and then he just restart the process.

The failure of course could occur after two/three attempts so the user
shouldn't be that annoyed to retry the whole thing (since he has been
quite careless!).
