Hi all, I can't find a working archive search for this list, so please forgive me if this has been discussed before. Has any thought been given to supporting websockets in the ssh client? I'm talking about solely using a websocket as the transport layer, and leaving the actual protocol intact, as opposed to the (to me, frankly terrifying) idea of allowing a web server to act as an ssh client to a regular sshd and providing a terminal interface. I'm weighing up the pros and cons of this idea in my own mind at the moment, and whilst I like the idea for providing another transport to services such as git-over-ssh, I can't help wonder if it would encourage poor network security. My main motivation is that it is generally easier to route HTTP across multiple corporate firewalls than getting ports opened for ssh (even if it is an embedded sshd such as in gerrit rather than an actual shell). That said, my main motivation is also probably the biggest reason not to push this as a standard part of the ssh client. I'm not subscribed to the list, please cc me in any responses.
