That really isn't the job of OpenSSH, but more for PAM or some other
authentication module. Further, there is already software to prevent robots
from getting into your server, such as Netfilter, TCPWrappers and
Denyhosts.

Interesting idea, but something like delaying logins really belongs
elsewhere in the system.
