(Get the code!)
This bug looks like medium priority since it can totally block some ssh connections in following way:
user with many keys connects to some server(s) and all his keys are cached.
When he tries to ssh to another server, or filezilla sftp into it, or sshfs, or many other pubkey usecases, then often first all the keys will be tried, often resulting in server disconnecting (instead of tyring the correct key or instead of using the given plain password).
In example Firezilla appears to first try all pubkeys of the user that started firezilla and that are in the agent (as seen on debug on server-side) instead of first using the given plain password.
Then ssh-agent -D does not help to resolve the problem.
