1. Proposed title of this feature request:
   "Enhanced SSH Key Handling and Prompting in openshift-install Command"

2. Nature and description of the request:
   The feature request aims to improve the handling of SSH keys in the `openshift-install` command during the deployment of an OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) cluster. Specifically, it seeks to enhance the user experience and security by implementing the following changes:

   a. Mandatory SSH Key Selection:
      - Make SSH key selection a mandatory step during the cluster deployment process.
      - If the SSH key is not available in the default '~/.ssh/*.pub' location, prompt the user to specify the SSH key path interactively.

   b. Improved Error Handling:
      - If the SSH key is missing or inaccessible at the specified path, provide clear and informative error messages to guide the user in resolving the issue.

3. Business Requirements:
   The customer needs this feature for the following reasons:   
      - Making SSH key selection a mandatory step and providing interactive prompts simplifies the deployment process for users.
      - Clear error messages help users quickly identify and resolve SSH key-related issues.     

    - Disaster Recovery: In the event of a cluster deployment failure, retaining SSH access to cluster nodes is crucial for troubleshooting and recovery efforts.

By implementing these enhancements, the feature request aims to make the `openshift-install` command more user-friendly and secure, ultimately improving the overall experience of deploying and managing OCP clusters.
