I had been pasting only the private key into the form for the public key. 
Obviously, I didn't carefully read that screen; I was somewhat aided in my
misunderstanding by the "Import Keypair" button and my (apparently
incorrect) understanding that the "private key block" contained both keys.

To possibly help alleviate this confusion in the future, any chance the
process could be changed to a single step, with one form that has two text
area fields, one for the private key and one for the public?  It would
probably require a larger window, but it would make it pretty obvious that
it needs two separate inputs (and save a click in the process, too).  Just a
thought.  Thanks for the help on this!
