I'm definitely saying +1. I'm guilty of putting my keys on bastion though, but I deleted them a while back.

Is there a way we can make users not able to write to that file, or have a cron job automatically sweep and delete private keys, as well as notify users that we found a private key, and it was deleted, and their public key in FAS if it was also removed, and that they have to add a new one (maybe even ensure it's different) ?
