error during SSH connection

So first of all, I think that this option is not supported in very old SSH client versions, you can check which version you are running with ssh -V and upgrade to a newer version if possible, also for all the security fixes included in newer versions.

About whether the option should be set by default, I just enabled it by default as I have never encountered someone who checked the host key for a hostname if there was no conflict before. If the known host key changes, you will still get the warning pop up about a changed host key with this option.

I can add that maybe as a security option to the settings menu in the future update, would that be ok?
