That reminds me: security measures that are hard to use have the
effect of lowering security.  

There are probably a significant number of people who use password
authentication because ssh-agent and co can be hard to set up.  (And
even ssh is much better than most public-key systems -- look at the
mess of SSL.)

I would venture that if ssh-add did automatically create a default
daemon when it was run, it would be no worse for "technical" security
but would encourage slightly more people to use keys.
