The solution was propagated from redhat 7.3. So now I should just manage ssh-add as I didn't realise ssh-agent was already included. Isn't one modified file simpler than every user having to click and know where to click? I like solutions without click. But thanks for that alternative solution. My first gnome lecture! Keith Winston also mentionned keychain. Another option as it is once per reboot. Valid only for private workstation. But very interesting in that case.
