I quite agree. You couldn't do it from the client side, but it should be
an option on the server side. The reason for this is because I frequently
want to allow some users to run particular commands via command-squashed
keys, but I don't want to give the accounts real shells - I want sshd to
fork the commands directly, not to go through the shell.
This should at least be an option.
