Changelog
=========
+- :feature:`-` Enhanced `~paramiko.agent.AgentKey` with new attributes, such
+ as:
+
+ - Added a ``comment`` attribute (and constructor argument);
+ `Agent.get_keys() <paramiko.agent.Agent.get_keys>` now uses this kwarg to
+ store any comment field sent over by the agent. The original version of
+ the agent feature inexplicably did not store the comment anywhere.
+ - Agent-derived keys now attempt to instantiate a copy of the appropriate
+ key class for access to other algorithm-specific members (eg key size).
+ This is available as the ``.inner_key`` attribute.
+
+ .. note::
+ This functionality is now in use in Fabric's new ``--list-agent-keys``
+ feature, as well as in Paramiko's debug logging.
+
- :feature:`-` `~paramiko.pkey.PKey` now offers convenience
"meta-constructors", static methods that simplify the process of
instantiating the correct subclass for a given key type identifier or other
