Yes, that's the SSH client I would recommend, as it uses native client and
doesn't proxy your session any where.  I'd also suggest using it in a
dedicated window, so you can use ^-W, ^-N, and ^-T:

For various reasons, I have just been password-auth'ing for SSH thus far,
and I don't have any insight into using pub/priv keys with that particular
app.  If you're so inclined, you can improve the overall security of SSH
password auth'ing with 2 factor auth:

mosh looks compelling, and perhaps it would make Gogo tolerable for code
editing.  I've been meaning to give it a try, if you do, let me know how
you like it.  :)
