--- Comment #2 from Colin Walters <walters at verbum.org> ---
At the time, I was working on a GUI ssh app (for Unix) - that was...a
long time ago.  I think it still makes sense - the idea with the app is
that it heavily used SSH channels, and tries to ensure you only have
one.

I think this patch could still make sense - if e.g. some software using
SSH wants to interleave ssh and sftp executed as subprocesses, you
really want to ensure that sftp reuses the channel.

But on the other hand, sophisticated apps today are probably using
libssh instead.

I'm unlikely to rebase this patch myself, but thanks for following up
anyways!
