Yes, I'd like to know too...

It is notionally easier to get a key-file out of my hands than it is
to get a long passphrase out of my head.  Even surreptitiously, if
need be.

So the advantages of using a key-file compared to a password or
passphrase appear to be somewhat outweighed by that problem :-)
