Would this explain a key that *opens* too easily (in m1964's words, "with even slight air pressure" - i.e. blowing open)? It seems to me if the spring is binding in this way it might prevent it from closing, which would certainly result in a leak. But why would a bind in the spring's travel cause too little resistance to internal air pressure?
