I've been using SSHKeychain for a long while now, and while it does  
prompt for key passphrases, it does not prompt for ssh passwords (for  
servers with which you do not have a key pair set up). I thought it  
might, but I tested and it doesn't. And when I think about it, it  
makes sense - SSHKeychain is managing an ssh-agent process, but if  
ssh-agent only provides keys, it doesn't provide passwords, so if the  
keys fail then SSHKeychain isn't asked for the password.
