Great.

Maybe that isn't a good idea, it trains users to just-click-yes to make
things work. I don't think OpenSSH has any mechanism to replace
hostkeys in the known_hosts file? Maybe that is because of the
just-click-yes concern.
OpenSSH offer a mechanism to configure it to not fail for incorrect keys
for a particular hosts, though. Maybe libssh2 could support that? I
think it should still warn, though.
