I was about to introduce something similar, I would try to keep it
general purpose. A good use case could be to unlock an encrypted root fs
after a reboot, even though that would require more work.

Some things I noticed:

1. This should go into modules.d, not the root
2. check() should return 255 even if sshd is found (you probably don't
want this to be the default)?
3. the multiple inst_simples for the different keys seem excessive, plus
there might be more than those. Use a glob?

Cheers,
  Daniel
