--- Comment #1 from Colin Watson <cjwatson at debian.org> ---
I ran into this recently when trying to work out how we might do host
key rotation on a large SSH server.  This is a code hosting site to
which you can push code over SSH, usable by anyone who's given us a
public key rather than limited to a single organisation, so we can't
mandate any particular client setup and the host key certificate
mechanisms don't really work all that well for us either.

Life would be a lot easier in this kind of environment if
UpdateHostKeys were on in some way by default.  (We'd actually probably
need it to have been on by default for a few years, and something
similar to be in some other popular clients too, but you have to start
somewhere.)
