Have you looked at 
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=ssh&stype=all yet? (It lists 
all the ssh related ports).  Maybe something there does what you want.

Personally I use Konsole and the system ssh - no extra software needed. 
  I use public/private key pairs for systems I don't want to enter 
passwords on and use ~/.ssh/config to create "sessions" - that is to 
associate an alias to a particular host and user name.

Note: KDE already has a lot of built-in support for SSH/SFTP.  For 
example, typing sftp://user@host or fish://user@host in a Konqueror 
location bar will allow you to work with the remote system's files in 
Konqueror.  Most any KDE application (kate being the one I use most) can 
directly edit files on the remote system in this fashion.

HTH,
Micah
