+1.  Although I'd still like to see a minimal-interoperability profile option
along the lines of "what scp/FTP does" for the many implementations who just
want a basic "move a file from A to B".  If it could implement Josephs "send
me the whole file as fast as you can" (again a la scp/FTP) that'd be perfect.
The current "Whatever's necessary to get OpenSSH to accept this file" really
isn't workable as a "spec".
