I think this is a much cleaner approach than what I proposed; users
don't need to worry about MatchHostName somehow clobbering their
config file, it requires setting one option (ExpandHost) as opposed to
two (HostName & MatchHostName), etc. Seeing that this option had
support in another subthread, I'll update my patch to use ExpandHost
instead.

To those who objected to my initial patch, does this change address
your concerns?

Best wishes,
Ryan
