Just a small question: Is there a possibility to get rid of the fact that we need to pass a public key into the functions?

I recall this was discussed earlier.  Was it the case that this problem
only affects the libgcrypt backend?

Aren't we talking about the libssh2_userauth_publickey_fromfile_ex() function? It has an API that works this way...

I have some vague memory of a patch going in to address this problem, but maybe it was OpenSSL specific.

Right, I believe there once was a patch that made the public file part of that API call unnecessary/optional but it was only made OpenSSL-specific.
