Description
If you have an ssh-agent up and running it is very irritating to add the ssh-key "again" if you have done before during the startup using ssh-askpass.
I would use the same ssh-key to access some remote systems as I have on my system (NFS mounted homedirectory). So the key is already loaded and I guess we could make use of the ssh-agent instead of saving the ssh-key in memory.
I am thinking along the lines of:

This is already implemented in r4377
It will be part of the v0.12.6 packages due out later today.
