Bug Description

When connecting to a remote server where ssh key is involved, a pop up should ask for passphrase instead of silently timing out.

Has this been fixed? I just tried connecting to a remote server via SSH, leaving the password field blank (no password authentication allowed). I was prompted to unlock my private key, which I did, and then finally after a couple of minutes, Files timed out and said it was "unable to mount folder".

It seems the original bug has been fixed, but there is possibly another issue?
