Bug Description

When using ranges in sed expressions, sed applies the user's locale to determine whether something falls in the given range.

At the beginning of most (all?) ssh public keys, there's a sequence of a's. "aa" is an old, but still valid, way of writing the Danish letter "å". "Å" sorts after "Z", meaning that it's not included in the "A-Z" range given in the recently added sed expression in ssh-import-id. Consequently, it gets filtered out.
