Question regarding encryption

Hi, 

According to IETF draft draft-ietf-secsh-transport-14.txt, different
ciphers(encryption), MAC and compression can be used for one direction say
server-to-client and a completely different cipher, MAC and compression for
the other direction client-to-server of the same connection.

Is this supported today in OpenSSH, and if not, are there plans to support
it in any future releases of the code?  If so, in which release is it
planned?

thanks
Gowrishankar
