Description:
------------
Filing this wish list as requested by Pollita.

It would be "nice" if there were a function in ssh2 that would be able to create a SSH public/private key pair just like ssh-keygen does.  Preferablly with the possibility to create the key with a pass phrase and of differing types.

Hi jstuart,

Creating a keypair is easily done by calling ssh-keygen through exec.

libssh2, the library that the ssh2 extension is using has no support for creating 
keys, and will probably never support it in the feature.
