SSH2 and IPV6 curiosity

I understand that SSH2 does not currently specify the use of ipsec.  Will
SSH2 be doing any development with the ESP header in the IPV6 protocol?  If
and when an IPV6 enabled telnet release comes out what will be the security
benefits of SSH2?  Wouldn't X application tunneling fly if SSH2 could be
written to utilize the lower levels of the protocol?  Does anyone know when
and how these issues may be approached?

P.S. Sorry for all the questions
									Thanks,
									Jerry
