Preserving of comments of SSH keys

I want to migrate my SSH keys to 1Password. I've noticed, however, that when I import my key to 1Password, the contents of the private key would be different. It turns out 1Password strips the comment. Comments don't affect authentication, but it's a bit confusing. For now, I can store original keys with comments as file attachments with the SSH Key item, but this looks like a minor defect to me.


1Password Version: 8.10.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 11.7.4
