Proxying about:
- SSH to a machine via other machines. This is very useful when hitting machines through the one machine with port 22 forwarded to it. Sure, you can specify an alternate port, but this would allow you to set up convenient aliases ahead of time, which is nice.

Triggers:
- Set up a public key without a password, but limit it to do specific things, giving a modicum of security.

Set up pam_ssh – login automatically unlocks your key (which is, likely
not a good idea).

SSH ControlMaster:
- Vastly accelerates things like sshfs, and also makes things like opening multiple windows much nicer.
