    Yah, it would be really nice if ssh did too... I have a box with
    five IP addresses on it, some externally routed, some NAT'd, some
    internal, and ssh'ing out from it without being able to bind to a
    specific IP makes setting up security difficult.

    It's utterly trivial to add, but I don't have time myself.

    It is possible to use a jail to force the source IP address, but
    jail's do not appear to work well with interactive tty's.  ssh gets
    really confused when run from a jail.
