[BBLISA] Mac users ssh client and changing host keys

[Matt Simmons]

I use the Mac Terminal (although iTerm is common from what I've seen, too).
I use the normal "ssh-agent" for my key management.

As for renumbering, I'm not sure. How high-touch is your user management?
Could you deploy the "fixed" files via puppet or something similar?
