The code is here: 
https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/chef/lib/chef/knife/cookbook_site_install.rb

Sounds like a bug, you should file a ticket at tickets.opscode.com for the 
CHEF project, knife component.

Yeah, generally each user should be using his own key. How did you create the 
first one? `knife configure -i` is designed to create your first user. Then 
you'd copy the key that it creates to your workstation. After that you can 
use `knife client create -a -n -f KEYFILE USERNAME` to create new admin 
users. From where you're at now, I'd recommend using that command to create a 
new user for yourself instead of using the webui user.
