JOE should support Key Agent authentication for SFTP

Current Situation

JOE supports authentication with

• private/public key including passphrase
• password keyboard interactive
• password (stored)

Desired Behavior

JOE should support use of a Key Agent.

• This includes but is not limited to use of the KeePass password manager.
  • Install the KeePass KeyAgent plugin: Download
  • Configure the plugin
  • add an entry to the KeePass database.
  • add the private key as an attachment to the entry.
  • from the Key Agent options tab allow Key Agent to use the private/public key
• Open JOE profile editor and check the option Use Key Agent
  As a result a private key optionally including a passphrase is retrieved from the Key Agent. The user does not have to type a passphrase.
