That certainly sounds like a bug, we will get it sorted.
Recently @nbianca made a pretty critical change, we were unable to “stage” repos prior to having them ready. This meant someone was stuck with that UX open while another person was busy setting up the repo.
We now allow you to “stage” the component or theme and deal with keys at your own leisure.
Feels like some of the network chatter here is leftover from the old implementation.
