Ahh, in my scanning through the `ssh_config` manpage, I missed this, and 
change logs seem to indicate this feature has been around since at least 
2017, so should not cause compatibility issues with the other users.

No problems, I just tried it out, and already, things are a _lot_ more 
sane.  I'll give it a try more long-term and see how it fares.
