It is possible to have interactive sessions that have commands, e.g.
"ssh -t somehost vi somefile" so basing the interactivity check on
command length is incorrect. 

I don't see any better way of determining user intent to interact with
a remote program than whether or not a TTY is requested so I am closing
the bug. If you can think of one, feel free to reopen it.

By the way, if it is just the "connection closed" message that annoys
you, you can silence it using "ssh -q" or a LogLevel entry in the
client config.
