The openssh package that's currently on riscos.info tries to use keys from
a /ssh folder in Choices. I say "tries" because it looks like some
filename translation issues stop it from working properly.

This was on a system without UnixHome installed - possibly it works a bit
better if that's present (ISTR that an older version of ssh did use
UnixHome).

Regardless, Choices:/ssh seems like a reasonable place to me for storing
SSH keys.
