--- Comment #6 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
We don't plan in implementing this. In answer to comment #2, the helper
command/alias can use "ssh -G" to resolve the active configuration for
most cases.

It is true that a helper command/alias is would not be able to see the
results of hostname canonicalisation, but it could avoid this by doing
that step itself if necessary. I don't think this shortcoming is enough
to justify the maintenance burden of another command-execution feature,
sorry.
