Rob, If you want a nice message, I suggest creating a class in /etc/logins.conf which point to a /etc/issues.sftponly file where the user gets a nice message, which you deem appropriate. Secondly, as far as chroot, I don't believe OpenSSH supports chroot natively, however I know there is a patch floating around (I believe in the contrib/ directory of the openssh portable tarball) which will patch openssh to support chroot'd environments. You will need to recompile the openssh portable distribution, however.
