Knife ignores ssh config file

[unlimit]

Hi!
Is it possible to use ssh config file or ssh agent with knife zero?
I was able to use it with '-i ~/path_to_key' option only. I there a better alternative for it?

I remember that the knife ssh function, which is the basis of knife-zero, refers to ~/.ssh/config. You may want to experiment with different configurations.

It seems ssh/config is ignored by bootstrap command only.
At the same time:
/bin/knife zero converge - works with ssh/config
/bin/knife ssh - works with ssh/config

Is it possible to use ssh forward agent with /bin/knife zero converge ?
I have this option set in config file knife[:forward_agent] = true
But it doesn't help, ssh-agent is not running. My recipe fails with STDERR: Could not open a connection to your authentication agent
