However, the original poster said ftp over ssh (sftp), which we should
all realize isn't ftp anyway. The two are quite different.
The short answer is that chroot'ing ssh/sftp sessions is not secure and
it's not a priority for the openssh group. sftp is simply not a
replacement for ftp for large environments that don't have control over
their user base. There are secure ftp implementations (ftp/tls), but
they have their restrictions.
