Interesting point/link. I suspect that if i was trying to do something
more substantial it would be worth the extra effort. As it is, there is
no state as such, all that needs to happen is the copy, and it means i
don't have to do anything on a target machine other than install an
.ssh/authorized_keys, which i'd be doing anyway. But i'll bear the above
in mind in the future.
