I think users should know when their parameters are not actually applied:

platforms:
  - name: debian-7
    driver_config:
      image_name: debian-7-wheezy-v20151104

      public_key_path: '/Users/temikus/.ssh/id_rsa.pub'
      auto_restart: true

Trying to chase down invalid options by checking everything is a losing battle when ultimately having a correct config and good error messages when misconfiguration causes it to explode is the best defense against this problem. Chasing it the other way never ends well and it'd be a lot of code / gold plating for something that ultimately will be a moving target.
