            This would require the SSH private key be stored on the Blesta server (probably not smart).

            Moreover, our SFTP library (supplied by phpseclib) doesn't support key-based authentication with SFTP.

            Actually looks like key authentication is supported: http://phpseclib.sourceforge.net/ssh/auth.html#rsakey.
