             Bug #: 1917
           Summary: Escape sequence (~) doesn't work right with
                    ControlMaster/ControlPersist connections
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 5.8p1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ssh
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: mindrot-bugs at trk.nickurak.ca


When in a non-master ssh session connected to a Master session, ~. is
not captured, and therefore the connection cannot be terminated, and
the process cannot be easily closed. When a normal Master ssh process
is present, escapes can be used on it. This is doubly frustrating with
ControlPersist, where the Master connection is always in the background
and never directly accessible.

Open question: Should ~. terminate the master connection? Or should it
simply terminate the ssh client
