--- Comment #7 from Curt Sampson <cjs at cynic.net> ---
That looks good, and is considerably better than my original 2008
request.

In the meantime I also happen to have written ckssh
(https://github.com/cynic-net/ckssh) which takes a slightly different
approach. It runs multiple SSH agents, each with a different set of
keys loaded, and you pick which agent ("container") you want to use
when logging in to another host using forwarding. (Or just using in
general; this also is useful for, e.g., making a work key available in
a Docker container where you're pair-programming without giving others
in that session access to your other keys.)

Each method has advantages and disadvantages of course.
