Frankly, I dont sure I understand the problem, so just several
ideas about it:

AFAIK hostkey couples with the name the client uses for ssh, e.g.,
`ssh 127.0.0.1' and `ssh localhost' introduces two different hostkeys.

I think it is quite reasonable that if several hosts make a cluster
(that is cleint should not be able to distinguish among them) then
they should share the hostkey (and hostname).

The client should not be able to distinguish them if it uses the
service (e.g. cvs). If it wants a specific server, it should be
able to identify it.
