I just implemented the "replacekey" command for rash:

    ssh sourceware.org replacekey < id_dsa.pub

This command will replace the authorized_keys file with the contents of
id_dsa.pub, wiping out anything else in the file.

I suspect that replacekey should be the preferred method for updating
a keys from now on.

Would it make sense for "updatekey" to be renamed to "appendkey"?

Agreed.

Yes, this sounds like an excellent plan.  Thanks a lot for making all
these improvements, Chris!
