Right, I forgot that ~ has to be secure as well.
Yes this is documented and desired as the default behavior. From man
sshd_config :
StrictModes
Specifies whether sshd should check file modes and ownership of
the user’s files and home directory before accepting login. This is normally
desirable because novices sometimes accidentally leave their
directory or files world-writable. The default is “yes”.
You can turn this off in /etc/ssh/sshd_config by changing
StrictModes yes
to
StrictModes no
Though it is not recommended.
I will go ahead and convert this to a question.
