--- Comment #2 from Philip Hands <phil at hands.com> ---
The theory behind this code was that (in the absence of an explicit -i)
the most recently generated key was the one that is most likely to need
to be added to remote servers.

If you want some other key to be the default, all you need to do is
touch the file to make it the default instead.

If you have ideas about how one might cater as easily to people that
are not using ssh'd default as their main key, please make suggestions.
