Conceptually, it seems reasonable. But I'd recommend being very, very
careful with environment parsing between multiple old and new versions
of client, agent, and server..
As a purely practical and local approach, I personally tend to use
multiple perl "keychain" tool commands.
# keycain # Leaves sourceable ssh-agent config in
$HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME.sh
# HOSTNAME=github keychain # Leaves sourceable
ssh-agent config in $HOME/.keychin/github.sh
# HOSTNAME=work keychain # Leaves sourceable
ssh-agent config for work keys in $HOME/.keychain/work.sh
Then I can source and enable keys for the keychain as desired, and
switch among them. It's not perfect, but it lets me switch from one
keychain to the other for work related github keys, personal github
keys, root keys, personal keys, etc. and only have the relevant ones
in a particular shell session.
