This is not currently supported by openssh.  You're essentially looking
for a chroot'ed ssh/scp environment and that's not currently a priority
in the ssh development community.  Yes, it's been a standard for FTP for
years and one of the reasons I actually prefer ftp over scp.

There are a couple of projects out there that may help you - jailshell
and scponly.  I don't have the jailshell url handly but the scponly home
page is at http://www.sublimation.org/scponly/
