How to Use a Key in a Shared Vault

I read in the docs that keys in a shared vault are currently not supported.
Is there any config option that can be used in the ssh command or in the config to use a key in a shared vault, or is this just not possible at all right now?

Assuming the latter, what are the thoughts on if nothing else allowing shared keys to be specified on a per host or connection? I can really see a use-case in our team where in some cases sharing a key is just the unfortunate best option.

    Thanks for testing and sharing your use case. There is not currently an option to enable this. As a workaround, the key can be copied to a private vault; however, it won't be kept updated if it changes later.

    @artooro Following up with an update that we're working on a solution that lets you enable keys from other vaults than the Private/Personal vault. It would be great to get your feedback on our proposal, if you're (still) interested. You can do so by joining the #ssh-agent-config channel in our Slack workspace.
