ssh_config, AddressFamily

[Georg Bege]

Hello

I was wondering why I cant set inet6,inet - like Protocol version 2,1 - it 
would be nice if I would be able to set a kind of prefer mode for IPv6 as for 
protocol 2. But only one argument is accepted: inet6, inet or any.
At least that is what the manpage tells me, I also tested it - no way.

Why is this feature not included? Will it be included?
If you think it's my mistake then please tell me how I can force openssh to 
prefer inet6 but not to use inet6 only.
Thank you, any answer will be appreciated.

My Operating System: Gentoo GNU/Linux

Installed package:
