Getting public keys from keypairs with cloudinit 0.7.0

Hi,
to people who were testing cloudinit 0.7.0 in an environment using the
DataSourceEc2 (OpenStack, Amazon, probably other environments too):

In Openstack and amazon, you can upload public keys to the web interface of
the cloud, and the public keys are then downloaded to each instance you
launch. Cloudinit then takes care of downloading the public keys and
placing them to .ssh/authorized_keys. It reaches the keys via the EC2 api
(i.e. http://169.254.169.254).

Did you manage to get a user's public key to authorized_keys with cloudinit
0.7.0?

Anybody tried this?

Cheers,
Tomas
