Musayev, Ilya commented on CLOUDSTACK-497:
------------------------------------------

I'm just thinking on how AWS does it - they don’t save your private key in 
their DB either and that is done on purpose. 

Why would you want to save the private key in the DB? My humble opinion, it’s a 
security issue. 

Maybe we make this optional for those who don’t believe this to be an issue and 
really need to store the private key on a shared platform.


                
> createSSHkeypairs doesnt save the private key to the db, so list sshkeypair 
> doesnt return a private key
