Sending Signal to remote process

I want ssh to forward the SIGTERM signal to the remote command.


Example:
   ssh root@localhost /root/print-signal.py


Get PID of ssh:
    ps aux| grep print-signal


Kill the matching ssh process:
    kill pid-of-ssh


Unfortunately only the ssh process itself gets the signal, not the remote command (print-signal.py). The remote command does not terminate :-(

How can I make ssh "forward" the SIGTERM signal to the remote command?

See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48377993/forwards-sigterm-over-ssh

According to this[1] answer, openssh does not implement this.

It would be realy great if openssh could forward the signal to the remote-command.

What do you think?
