I'd really like to be able to upload the authorized_keys file for use by dropbear and disable password log in at the same time via the web interface, it would simplify configuration a bit by getting rid of the need to do a password based login via ssh to configure the keys.

One more thing to watch for, in case ~/.ssh/authorized_keys doesn't work - dropbear checks home directory permissions and refuses public key authentication if it is writable by group or others. I've added a new user with /etc/persistent as home directory, which happened to be writable by group "admin" - and it took me quite a while to figure out why the device won't let me log in. Fortunately, permission changes are saved by cfgmtd too, so it was easy to fix.
