When I do gvfs-mount sftp://nick@192.168.1.2 it gives me
Enter passphrase for key
Password:

This particular server only accepts key based authentication.

When I do the same thing only for a different server that still allows
for password authentication I get
gvfs-mount sftp://user@host
Enter password
Password:

even though I have a key set up for that server

When I try to ssh to any of these servers from the command line it
connects without asking me anything because the keys are in the key
agent.

I also tested the gvfs-mount commands on an Intrepid machine and it
connected without asking me anything provided the keys were in the key
agent.
