Do you know why we never included the keyid here? It doesn't make sense for me, because if we don't provide a filepath we are even naming the keypair files <KEYID>.{pub,key}

# Generate the ed25519 public key file contents in metadata format
# We can include the keyid here, because the keyid is calculated
# by the key data without the private key.

is this check here is enough? Maybe we want to validate the keyid?
