SSH is biting us time and time again.
Perhaps we should add a Prefs option to specify ssh command line options?

Guys, any movements on this issue?

No, but since you can now choose an SSH binary, you could create a simple script file

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/ssh -o IdentitiesOnly=yes "$@"

and set that as your ssh client binary in Preferences.
