            Bug ID: 3019
           Summary: Journal log for incoming public key connect not
                    helpful to know origin
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.9p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: sshd
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: mindrot at dstoecker.de

In case of an incomming SSH connection the journal contains the
following entry:

Accepted publickey for root from ... port ... ssh2: ECDSA SHA256:...

that is not helpful to find the real source.

in authorized_keys the entries look like

ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 ... user at domain

It would be very helpful, when the above log message also contains the
"user at domain" part. That would make the log message much more helpful.
If not, the output should instead of the SHA256 at least contain the
same format as the authorized_keys entry has.
