Cookbook doesn't use an encrypted data bag for the user's ssh keys #54

Why would this be needed? The SSH keys are only the public keys, so there should be no need to encrypt them.

You could use an encrypted data bag, the cookbook does not prevent it, nor does it care one way or the other, but as far as a user's SSH keys are concerned, you're only storing public keys, which don't need to be encrypted.
