--- Comment #1 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
That wouldn't be the same thing unfortunately. It would be possible
(given a fairly significant amount of effort) to query some of the
option that the remote side has *enabled* but that's more like what
"ssh -G [host]" does rather than what "ssh -Q [option]" does.

"ssh -Q" shows what the client supports, not what the client has
enabled.
