+.. note::
+
+ ``authorized_keys.xml`` allows you to specify the group whose
+ public key should be allowed. This retrieves the public key
+ specific to that group (if it exists), *not* the public key for
+ all hosts in that group. This is due to the performance penalties
+ that would be imposed by that approach.
+
+ Similarly, it is not possible to allow access from all keys for a
+ given user (i.e., at a given path).
+
+ Hopefully, the performance concerns can be resolved in a future
+ release and these features can be added.
