you know, if you go to "file:///home/user/.ssh/id_rsa", you can see the PRIVATE key file of the N900's user! omg!

seriously, i bet the iPhone and android do the same basically, the exact location might be a bit more obscure, but it certainly isn't "encrypted" there, either.

saving as a hashed string might be enough to soothe concerns here, and should be fairly easy to implement.
