Package: libpam-ssh
Severity: wishlist
Keys loaded by libpam-ssh are automatically usable by any process in
the session without requiring confirmation.
Some users prefer to have confirmation prompts for their key usage.
Note that the confirmation prompts themselves are usually done via the
environment variable SSH_ASKPASS as seen by the agent itself (and the
askpass tool itself needs to be aware of things like the X11 session
if it is to do a graphical prompt), so perhaps a mechanism for
choosing which askpass to use would be useful as well.
Going with the default system-provided ssh-askpass (which is in the
/etc/alternatives system) would be a great start, though.
