RSA SSH key provisioned to LDAP after upload with cut and paste has wrong format in LDAP

I uploaded the same RSA SSH key to a CoPerson record in two ways: (1) using 'cut and paste' into the form and (2) clicking the 'UPLOAD' button and browsing to find the file. 

The same LDAP key is provisioned into LDAP in two different ways:

The first entry above begins with 'ssh-rsa ssh-rsa' and ends with 'My Key'. The 'My Key' is the text that was put in the form in the 'Comment' field.

That SSH key when read by OpenSSH will not work. 

The other version of the SSH key in LDAP, which was uploaded using the 'UPLOAD' button, does work as expected.
