  I don't remember seeing any ssh based code in the IOSlaves, however we are
slowly but surely getting SSL support into some of them.  POP3, HTTP and the
still-under-heavy-development (read: not yet functional) SMTP IOSlave all have
SSL support.

   Perhaps we could make use of OpenSSH for doing ssh based ioslaves?  The
key/session management should be done as a very configurable secondary
library, similar to what we hope to do with the SSL certificate manager. 
Perhaps it should all be done as a Security Management library that can
handle all of these things?  Even PGP keys?  The ever dangerous password
repository that some people demand?
