Description

I'd love to have SSH Public Key support.

The existing GPG flow could be adapted. Personally I'd strongly prefer we do #41 support, to make our records self substantiating.

inspired by

This is something I've wanted for a bit in general but...

The call to action really was inspired by this other public key declaration effort, https://atmo.sh. Based on tangled. It notably doesn't have any attestation!

Research direction

Start by examining the existing GPG flow and issue #41, which the report identifies as a preferred direction for self-substantiating records. Compare the proposed SSH public-key support with the atmo.sh example linked in the issue. The issue does not name files, tests, or a settled acceptance criterion, so the design and definition of done need clarification first.
