Thank you, Connel, it worked exactly as you described.
I had to strip some extra data from the newly generated key and add "ssh-rsa " in front of it when inserting it in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys , which was pretty obvious.
Importing the key of secureCRT to putty did not work.
UTF-8 support in putty seems less broken than in SecureCRT, but it is far from working correctly :-( at first sight. Maybe I need some tweaking with linux' terminal settings, but I have no clue which selections to make.

I've had good experiences setting the Putty session to UTF-8 from "Window / Translation", and then edit ~/.bash_profile to add "export LANG=en_US.UTF-8".
WinSCP also works great for getting the filenames right when "Environment / SFTP / Server does not use UTF-8" is set to Off instead of Auto.
