All commands can be issued on the command line with the -C "<command list>"
option.

Right.  But if 'ssh' did not require the controlling process to be a
PTY I could simply say:

  SET NETWORK TYPE COMMAND
  SET HOST ssh host

But because 'ssh' requires that the controlling process be a PTY for
it to make a terminal connection this does not work.
