Feature Request: Disable auto-checking for private keys when connecting via ssh

[Gustave Stresen-Reuter]

Hi,

This is a feature request to allow users to disable the check for keys in .ssh when connecting via ssh.

I have a server with a couple hundred accounts on it. On some I connect using keys but with the vast majority, I use a password.

Because the server automatically offers to connect via keys, Sequel Pro politely accepts the offer and sends my keys (which more often than not, don't work).

I use the SSH tunnel whenever I can and would really like to be able to disable this automatic check.

Or perhaps it should only do the key exchange if the password is left blank? Perhaps that is too subtle…

Thanks,

Ted
