Ideally you would have this event driven, i.e. a channel signal the app that something could be read or written in stead of the app polling.

But the app isn't polling here. It gets data back every call. Having the function do a callback is doable but we don't actually gain anything by that.

libssh2 is fully possible to use event-driven today already and this suggested addition will only make it better on handling many channels.
