--- Comment #28 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
I don't think further progress is really possible here - "ssh-keygen
-l" has to support both known_hosts and authorized_keys files, and the
default case for known_hosts has no comments.

I'd suggest the workaround I mentioned in 26: if you prefix your
comments with '#' characters then ssh-keygen will ignore them.

Feel free to reopen if you have a better idea
