You need to explain this a lot better than the above.  

I am sure systems such as Github have more than dozens of users who
push over ssh and these users identify themselves by which key to
use when establishing connection just fine (presumably by using a
"Host" entry for the github URL in ~/.ssh/config), and presumably we
are not sending "wrong" keys over there.  So there needs to be a lot
more clear description of the problem you are trying to solve in the
first place.
