Fundamentally, you're asking for a firewall for your terminal because 
you can't / won't run a secure client. Feel free to write one, but it 
neither should nor needs to be part of OpenSSH. It's just a PTY/TTY 
proxy, and would work just fine as a stand-alone app. If you really want 
to integrate it, a better target would be something like screen or tmux, 
so it protects against all malicious terminal apps.
