'course, I may have jumped the gun on my comments. I'm also assuming a
sane sftp client. Certainly the (standard/portable) OpenSSH sftp
implementation doesn't need it. If your sftp client doesn't have any
way to identify the key store, then it might not be able to handle it.
(On UNIX/Mac, it may be implicit on where it finds the keys. I don't
know about arbitrary Windows clients)
