I think users.<name?>.authorizedKeys is good place for configuring it.
But I guess you did not put the modifications into sshd.nix
expression. So you will have to extend the users option from another
module because the .ssh/authorized_keys is related to sshd. (see
loaOf/attrsOf in nixpkgs/pkgs/lib/types.nix) Upstart & filesystems are
already doing such a thing.
