Looks like OpenStack (nova) allows to specify only one SSH key when instance is created. I believe array of strings should be supported instead of single string only, as authorized_keys allows for more than one SSH key. Workarounds like using merged key are not always an option, as it scales poorly (see example in question linked above).

We don't track RFEs through launchpad bugs. If you'd like to submit a blueprint and spec to the nova-specs repo then we could review the idea there, if even a limited backlog spec where you don't necessarily need design/ implementation details, just the high level problem statement and use cases.
