I've had a look/think about this, and as far as I can see, this
(strange!) behviour has not changed significantly since 1.1 days
(at least) :-).

JDP had handed us the solution on a plate; PAM. Once that is in,
most of the @#$%ing kerberos mess goes down the toilet, and we
can look forward to a much cleaner tree.

I need to constuct an analagous behaviour for traffic encryption
that will allow a pluggable module to encrypt arbitrary traffic
in a rsh, rlogin, telnet session, but that (given my murderous
workload) will take a while.

I have this dream of being able to plug SSH into telnet and have
it work in an exportable/optional way.
