Here's what I've seen. When creating new ssh connections -RR alone works as desired; it creates a clean new shell. However, when I test the primary use case by dropping and reconnecting the VPN (I work remotely, which is why this matters so much to me) a new putty connection still creates a clean new session rather than reconnecting to the previous one. When I try -D -RR the situation flips (as expected). The first new ssh connections after VPN reconnect attach to existing sessions (good). But once all dropped sessions are reconnected, further ssh connections simply fight over the old ones rather than creating new ones (bad). In summary, all I want is a configuration that says "If there's an unattached session, use it. Otherwise start a new one". This seems really basic and I'm literally having trouble believing that it's not available.
