Personally I prefer to see all the keys when it's a visual diagram.

That said, I think my preference _in general) also inclines towards the notation 
where keys are indicated primarily by name (C#, E, F#, ...) rather than by key 
layout, simply because the latter can (and does) vary -- precisely the issue you 
identify with bass clarinet.  Using key names rather than key diagrams helps to 
avoid the worst of that, but as things stand I find the key-name diagrams in 
Lilypond somewhat problematic.

I really should get round to writing up my thoughts on these diagrams 
systematically -- I doubt most of the issues are that difficult to fix.
