Is it possible to connect to a server using the Public Key Authentication for SSH in Pantheon Files? If I select "Connect to Server..." and choose SSH as protocol it only offers me a username and password field.

I found the solution, it's possible by entering <user>@<host> into the server field and the password for the private key into the password field.
