This is possible by manually copying the desired host key files (with the .pub file name extension) from the user account Application Data\SSH\HostKeys directory into the %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\SSH\HostKeys directory (for example C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SSH\HostKeys on an English-language Windows NT platform).
The globally accessible keys can be seen on the Keys page of the Settings dialog.
