Bug Description

We nautilus is called to open an sftp and the public key differ then one in ~/.ssh/known_hosts, it refuse to open the connection for security reasons, but to do that you must open known_host file via a text editor, imho is better to show the differencies between the keys and tell the users what he want to do.
