SSH Option files using hashes instead of hostnames?

Hey there,

SSH allows the option of hashing the known-hosts file in order to prevent 
people who get access to your account being able to jump other places.  Is 
is not conceivable that they'd want the same option with their options 
file?

This could be implemented as an alternative to the "Host" option, say 
"Hosthash".  (Although it would differ in that it would canonicalize the 
hostname first, unlike the Host option.)

Has this been discussed in the past?
