Well, not exactly. When using ControlMaster, connection is setup once,
thus the LocalPreCommand is also called only once. Having mixed
ControlMaster for some hosts and not for others makes headache. Been
there, done that. Wrapping with functions/aliases make unnecessary
mess around, especially having many hosts with different setups. To be
really transparent, it would require parsing ssh command line to
search for host name.
