Seems to me the way to do this is to take the private key given and then upon startup feed it via the user-data to the authorized_keys file of the ec2-user.
ie:
#!
echo ssh-rsa AAAB3N...QcGskx keyname >> ~ec2-user/.ssh/authorized_keys
echo ssh-rsa BBRdt5...LguTtp another-key >> ~ec2-user/.ssh/authorized_keys

Regardless, the plugin still needs an keypair to launch the instance so I feel like this is a won't implement feature and your workaround is as described.
