When using the new SFTP functionality (looking very nice, by the way!), when attempting to load a private key in the new-ish OpenSSH format (the type that begins with -----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----), the key will not load. A prompt is shown asking for a passphrase, but no matter what passphrase is entered, it will not be accepted.
This new private key format has been made the default as of OpenSSH 7.8, and as I created a new key for use on my phone, I inadvertently created one in this new format. I can understand that it may not be feasible to implement support for this format in a short time, but would it be possible to give a more useful error message?
