> I am attempting to use jar based keypairs in several applications I am developing.  Unfortunately because the SFTP configuration only allows for a file to be specified for the private key, in order to use a key stored in a resource I have to first copy the resource to the local filesystem and then use that temporary file.  I'd much rather that I could specify the location of the location of private key as a VFS url.  Jsch supports using a byte array instead of a file to specify the private key, so VFS could be used to turn the URL into a byte array and pass that to JSCH instead.
