Totally, if someone compromises the machine and gets root they get all
your keys and without a passphrase... yeah no good.

- - With a little bit of configuration, it's easy to figure out which
key was used to login to an account; the audit trail can be managed
that way.
- - Managing which users have access to which root accounts is trivial
this way: just add or delete their keys from .ssh/authorized_keys[2].

Totally agree.


Ditto.
