[Subclipse-users] ssh-agent integration for connection via. ssh

Hi,

I was unable to find this issue in your tracker, yet it seems a bit obvious to
me. So if I was looking in the wrong place, just point me in the right
direction and I will shut up :)

Currently when using ssh as a transport layer, up flies a dialog where you can
enter a password or a passphrase. It also has a "save password" checkbox,
which I would not use for passphrases.

Issue 1: Instead of prompting the user, ssh-agent should be allowed to handle
the request. Also, if the appropriate key is not availalbe but ssh-agent is
running, the key should be made available via ssh by adding the key and
asking for the passphrase.

Issue 2: The dialog should remember whether a passphrase or a password was
used last time, since most people use either the one or the other.

Solving these issues would allow subclipse to seamless integrate in the
security structure on the linux and OSX platform, and probably win32 as well
when it catches up.

Please *cc me on replies*, as I am not subscribed to this mailing list. Thank
you.

and thanks for an excellent plugin :)
