Bug Description
When connecting 'bzr' by SSH to Launchpad, the SSH responder on the Launchpad side hangs silently if it is given an 'ed255key'.
Until the relevant key types are supported (bugs #907675 #1282220) there should be a warning at key registration time to make sure SSH does not offer them.
Something like this is needed in the SSH config to work around:
Host _lp
HostName git.launchpad.net
HostName ppa.launchpad.net
HostName bazaar.
HostName upload.
Port 22
IdentitiesOnly yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_key
